It is at the point that occasionally guys come up I need but except for Turkey Stearns they all go for $2000+ and I am unwilling to go that high. I do have some rare ones like Hanlon, Anson and maybe an Andy Cooper. I realized though that I prefer to get each guy on a card or more than one card especially different vintage cards tho not necessarily rookies like Jason and Brent. Just picked up a Hilton Smith on a 1975 Laughlin.
One day I will get around to posting them on internet. I may have some extra Spalding, Dreyfuss etc that I will part with next year. If I do probably Jim Stinson will get them as he has others of mine

I was going after that Smith but it went way higher than I was comfortable with. That thing has to be unique.
