Hey All!
Just completed my T205 HOF basic set (25/25)!!! I have them posted on the SGC registry (link below). I started with 6 HOF cards I inherited from my Grandpappy. I began in earnest to collect the other 19 in 2012. I have been working on obtaining the others in the set since then. As you know some are hard to come by even in rough condition.
I would like to thank fellow board members for the many sales/auctions/trades to help me achieve this goal!
I am on a tight budget so it is a low end set but still required two years and $2351 to complete (about $95/card). Regardless I love the cards in the set and the stories that go behind acquiring each beauty. I have them displayed nicely on the wall in my office.
Thanks again for the contributors on the board!
Cliff
