I save a lot of odd varieties. 91 Topps does have a ton of them, plus Upper deck with different holograms, 93 Upper deck with different gloss patterns ....Stuff like that.
I used to buy big boxfuls of cards at the flea market. Mostly in the mid 90's when people were mad about the strike and bailing on cards. I've moved a lot of the commons, still have some. I would go through them and put aside cards of players I thought were good but maybe not great. The sort of guys who had maybe an outside shot at 3000 hits, 300 wins or 400 HR. I still have the boxful of those, interesting to see how they ended up. (Nearly none of them made it.) Steve B

190,000?! Sounds like a whopper to me to me. I'm not sure if the space required to house that many cards is what gets me, or if it's the cost of acquiring that many Yount cards.
If you did, I hope you took the time to call up Guinness!
