Last Card Needed

[z28jd]

I started collecting Old Judge cards of the Pittsburgh Alleghenys and had a card of every player except Deacon White. Then he made the Hall of Fame and I'll finish this story once I win the lottery.

An actual set I finished with an interesting story. As a young child I bought many 1987 Topps cards and never got a Teddy Higuera card and my friend didn't have one either. Between us, we probably had close to 3,000 cards at the time. Even another friend that had about 150-200 cards didn't have Higuera. I bought a couple of the 100 card packs they sold and still didn't get the Higuera, so I finally ended up buying one at a card store for 35 cents. I decided to see how close I was to a second set and I was missing only three cards, two of which I got from my friend and there I was, one Teddy Higuera away from a second set.
