Default Bull Durham is on his way home

Great news, just filled the Durham spot in the Giants sub set. The seller was very generous on the deal…..so….2 Matty’s to go!

It's always great to complete a subset, especially for something like T206 that requires a lot of time, patience, and $$ to complete the main set.

Congratulations!

Thank you Fred…you are so right on all three! And reading books or even short bios on the players you are collecting as you go makes it even more fascinating. Recently , I completed acquiring the 5 Chase T206 cards and started reading “ The Black Prince of Baseball”on Hal Chase….so far, an amazing read.

Thanks Chris……and btw, really enjoying your you tube videos, and agree with your approach and thoughts on collecting this great set of cards….especially on getting to know the individual players, who were the original owners of the cards, the journey of the cards….all of it. Keep it up!
