Default Finally! T206 Complete

Took the larger part of two decades, but finally put together my T206 522 set to my specs!

* Set of 518 - all PSA 6 or better
* Big 4 - (Demmitt, Ohara, Magie, Plank) in PSA 3 or better

Thanks to all my fellow forumites who helped me put this together. Probably bought atleast 50-75 of the cards from here!

Will update all the pics on the registry site asap, but will take a while as i need a new scanner. But what i have is up there as the 6th ranked overall set.

Happy Father's day to my fellow dads!

Since this is the sales forum and while i have you, if you have any PSA 7s for sale or trade, i'd love to discuss with you as i work towards the next goal

Joey

Awesome congrats! I won’t lie, it’s kind of anti-climactic once you complete it. It’s like “now what??”

Congrats! It's amazing that there are sets as highly rated as yours (and higher). I only have a single 5.5 and a couple of fours.

Thanks so much for all the awesome comments so far my friends! it's been a wild ride and so much fun to search for these cards!

I may look to expand in some ways (increase the number of PSA 7s, go after sub back runs), but i really doubt i'll ever own the Wagner or error Doyle!

But for those interested in pics, the following link takes you to the set.

https://www.psacard.com/psasetregist...shedset/242727

I have to update a bunch of pics since i need a new scanner, but atleast 400-450 of the cards should have high-res scans of front and back! Those who are interested can enjoy those for now at least!

Thanks
Joey
