Currently the set sits at 7 overall, where it will likely remain -- until I get knocked down (because I dont plan on doing much/any upgrading). Here is a link to the set:

Hopefully, within a few months, front/back pictures of each card will be attached to the registry set.

NOW - my goal is to get this set into a museum (it does not belong in a safety deposit box or safe). Does anyone have connections to any museums? We have the Smithsonian (and many others) here in Washington DC (hometown), which I am going to approach. But I am open to all options. Thanks
Congrats on the COMPLETE set.

Be very very careful when it comes to dealing with museums.

I can't imagine gifting anything to a museum. They will likely de-access it and split up the money in administrative salaries. I'd go with fire-proof safe, and flickr account display.

I have a horror story myself as did many other members when donating to a museum was discussed on here before.

Letting a museum display it would be great. Letting the HOF display it would be amazing. Donating it to a museum would be horrible IMHO.

Ben

I agree with you regarding the HOF Museum. In post #164 here, I suggested to Ryan that this would be best. And of course, only LENDING them the cards for display.
The HOF Museum is constantly modifying many of their exhibits. So, Ryan's T206 set may on display for several years, then replaced with another display.

Virtually, every year since 1985 I have set-up at the Cooperstown BB card Show during HOF weekend. I was always impressed with the crowd that gathered to see the
various BB card exhibits in the Museum.

They have had a T206 set on display; however, it does not compare with your's. And, I know it does NOT have the Doyle N.Y. Nat'L card.

Take care my friend.

To be clear, I would lend, not donate. I plan on retaining ownership of the set and letting my kids deal with it after I am gone. But I would be fine if they sat (on loan) in a museum for many years; the set deserves to be seen, not stowed away, plus I have nowhere to keep it.

I love Teds idea on the HOF, it's why I mentioned it.

Ryan,

Congrats on switching over your Doyle from SGC to PSA. PSA should have at least giving it a 4. But either way, it is still the highest grade Doyle known to exist. Congrats once again!
