Great stuff. Thanks for sharing I really like this set and almost have it completed. Connie Mack on the crapper always brings a bit of a chuckle. Must have been awkward for the artist on that one

Thanks Eric. I've found the blue background E98s to be far and away the toughest color variation with the hordes of reds and greens dropping in to the market with the Black Swamp Find. Oranges can be difficult too, but not as bad as the blues. For some strange reason the blues are also the hardest to find in really nice condition. I have no idea why....

Only one ever graded and I see no evidence of one ungraded--if you do, let me know...

LOL. Same dealer, but different item. No, he did not advertise the "postcard" as having Collins. That was my discovery on the item.

Brian,

Interesting photo. Any idea of when and where it was taken ???

Probably pushing it, but A's wise, kind of looks like Bris Lord to Collins left.

Scott,

Thank you and sorry for the delay in getting back with you. I do not know when the photo was taken or if it is Bris Lord on the far left. I guess he borrowed one of the jackets from the other team because from the waist down the guy on the far left has the same uniform as Collins.
