The list includes four HOFers (Beckley, Galvin, Hanlon, & White) and other notables such as Jim McCormick and Billy Sunday. An interesting team to collect with a nice mix of easy and tough players/poses.

How complete are you on different subjects and poses? What is your goal?
I have 27 of the players and approx 50 of the poses. No real goal, but I could eventually go for as many Pittsburgh poses as possible. I'd like to go for all the Fred Dunlap cards sometime. Only have two so far
