Just wanted to share a story. Ive been working on an M116 cubs team set for about 4 years now. I have a VERY low budget so Ive been getting them in low grade but still it has been a nearly impossible feat. I decided to do this after finding an extremely rare Cubs envelope (very lucky find).
Anyways, ive had the hardest time finding Mordecai Brown and Harry Steinfeldt. After posting last week looking for one, MIKE ELLIS contacted me that he had a Steinfeldt and would basically GIVE it to me for anything I had. Well we did a trade and needless to say I AM SUPER HAPPY to have a Steinfeldt now (and a beauty to boot!).
Just wanted to share a great collecting experience on here from a fellow member and give Mr. Ellis some proper credit. I posted some subpar photos of the team set that is only missing the pastel Mordecai Brown. For a cheapie collector myself, this is a pretty big deal. thanks again Mike!!!
