Very nice so far. My kind of cards! And no idea why some had both names and some only a last name.

Because everyone knew who "FROCK" was but not everyone knew who HONAS WAGNER was. I'm not sure I still do.

Red Dooin PSA 2. Only 1 graded higher by PSA. They put this in a super duper large case for some reason. I have a few others in PSA and they’re not in like a case the size of a T3.

This is amazing. I’m always envious of those who can focus on sets. This one is full of star power.

Do you have a preference between SGC and PSA on these? Similar grading standards for the issue?

I like SGC. Most of the PC796’s are in SGC holders. If they’re graded by either PSA or SGC I’m fine with it.

Any updates, Ben?

These look so much nicer in the SCG Holders. Can't stand the look of those PSA Baggies, which really cheapen the overall presentation.

Wow Ben, great progress! Congrats and keep up the fight - we cant wait to see you master the balance of a this great set.

As an aside, the Cobb-Wagner is, in my opinion, one of the best baseball "card" pictures of all time. Two of the best ever, and its as if Wagner (best at the time) is passing the torch to Cobb (best of the next decades), of course not before Pittsburgh beats Detroit in the championship. In fact, I love that pose so much that I have commissioned Tim Carroll to make a cut-art piece of that exact pose.

I’ve been upgrading cards in this set over the past few months. One of the best sets out there.

What a great collection. Congratulations on finishing it and good luck with the future upgrades.

These and the PC805 Novelty Cutlery’s are some of my favorite postcards in the hobby.
