Tony,

Thank you for sharing. That is incredible. I’d love some more information about where and when he sold them. There were a few guys like Wattie Holm who never played after the set was released so I was working under the assumption that those guys were probably impossible.

Sadly they are all gone but what can you do? I asked him after reading this post and he said yes, the ENTIRE set was autographed along with a Lajoie! So keep looking, you'll find them all eventually (I know there's at least ONE of each out there)!
Good hunting and congrats so far,
Tony
