You asked......
"Do you still have these sets or did you trade off the sovereigns and piedmonts to complete the next task?"


I will answer you by starting from the beginning....as, I think it is worthwhile noting.

I put together my 1st T206 set (521 cards with Magie) in the 1980's. I sold it to one of my best buddies in
this hobby (a Net54er) back in 1997.

In 2005, I was fortunate to acquire a T206 collection of 555 cards (with 35 rare backs). So, I completed a
2nd T206 set of 520 different cards.

Net54 motivated me to start an all-PIEDMONT set. This 2nd set comprised of 33% PIEDMONT cards (inclu-
ding many of the HOFers). So, I was on my way to complete this set, by breaking up the 2nd set and sel-
ling or trading off the non-Piedmont cards.


I currently have all three of these sets......


.....all-PIEDMONT, Factory 25....(99% complete) set of 519 cards

.....all-SOVEREIGN, Factory 25....(100% complete) set of 410 cards

.....all-SWEET CAPORAL, Factory 30....(99.5% complete) set of 467 cards

I intend to keep the PIEDMONT and SOVEREIGN sets. And, will probably sell the SWEET CAPORAL set.


Thanks for asking,
