T206 super set

[wheitman]

At the time I published The Monster in 1980, I was just short of 3000 on my Monster Checklist. In the next 10 years, I was only able to add about 200. I've never known anyone else to come close to those totals and was the only crazy guy who collected all the various ways in 1980. In fact, one of the major reasons I published the book was to show people the many, many ways to collect the cards, which made it The Monster. I wanted to find people I could talk to about it.

Bill,

Thanks for your hard work. A true pioneer. I know your little pamphlet got me hooked on collecting T206 many years ago.

So you actually got to 3200 different? Amazing...especially without the internet.

Are you still collecting anything?
