Congratulations on all that! Hal Chase glove, no less! Let's have some names (and years?) of those T206 bats.

My 2017 Additions:

I am not sure if I had any set goals for 2017. I did finish my 1964 stand ups HOF set. I also added several pre war HOF cards.

I would like to add a few of the following in 2018:
1952 Topps Mays PSA 6
1941 Playball Dimaggio or Williams PSA 6
1933 Sport Kings Ruth PSA 4
T205 Young PSA 4
Finish my 52 Red Man set in PSA 6
Diamond Stars Medwick PSA 4 or 5

Good luck to everyone.

Thanks man! I picked up a Heinie Zimmerman, a Bob Bescher, and a Jean Dubuc. That brings me up to about 30 T206 player game used bats...

I tend to sell things in order to buy other things I want more at the time, but as I don't generally pick up anything I didn't want in the first place I end up with some holes in my collection checklist that weren't previously there. I'd like to be able to mark some of these off the checklist once again.

My goals for 2018 (t206)would be to pick up 1 of these off of of list and to buy more commons without piedmont and sweet cap backs

- Uzit back
- Red Hindu
- Cobb bat on(last Cobb needed)



I don’t think I had any goals for 2017. My best pickup was a green Cobb along with a few other HOFers and several commons.
