And Paul, awesome Wagner "rookie". It looks like you have the full National Copper Plate bound collection...there are many other "rookies" in there that I would love to have...nice one and oh so rare!
and Kenny, if you ever get tired of looking at your Wheat minor league cabinet, let me know...since it's only #4 on your list, maybe there's hope    |
Thanks, i do have the bound copper plate set (minus 5, including the Anson, i had to fill in, but accomplished!). i think that is the most amazing set, the pictures are awesome and they have the full description and information on the back. i consider them the first cards and they are perhaps the earliest ones with any player info? so many rookies in there.
i have the M-101 sporting news supplement set too. some different player selection (as an aside, I managed to get a few Delehantys at very reasonable prices while completing, for some reason he is listed in the guide, and was priced at auction, as a common ..but it's Ed Delehanty).
Steve Verkman broke up a Copper Plate set recently and still has a bunch for sale (minus some of the keys but still many HOF's left). was able to finish the set from his sale.
i love that Walter Johnson Tuxedo above! amazing.
Paul
