INCREDIBLE & INSANE... those are the only two words I can think of to describe this.

I concur -Such unusual behavior, it requires further study. I would like to see anyone else that owns a Corcoran to post their Corcoran! We need to start a dual thread : "Please post your Corcoran"

I thought the nine Bottomleys I had from the 1933 Goudeys were excessive

100 Corcorans?! That might be more ambitious than going for the set

I would say there aren't 100 out there, so that isn't a realistic goal. I know of about 10 more in collections. At most I've seen 40 over the last 19 years for sale/auction and two of those are in the collections I just mentioned. I say at most because I'm not sure the other 2-3 aren't ones that were resold over that time

Arduous would be a good word. He isn't the easiest card to find. I got the first one 19 years ago, but have only seen two in the last two years and the previous last one was July 2011

I picked up the Campbell in an Ebay lot; thanks to Chris for the other seven. Nice to pick up a small stack at once:
