Congratulations! A truly beautiful sight. Agreed that it looks fit for a museum. I could volunteer my living room...

To the OP - A few questions about the quest -

Which HOF was your first?
Which HOF was your last?
During the search, which were the five toughest players to locate?

That's a nice run of HOF N172s!

Interesting - I would've thought Delahanty was harder than Nichols

What surprises me is that the McPhee is listed as one of the toughest HOFers to obtain yet I've seen many for auction in the past few years. Perhaps people were cashing in on the perceived "rarity" of the card. I've seen far fewer White, Rusie's, Hamilton's or even Hanlon's in the past few years than McPhee cards.

Perhaps all the McPhee's are now in permanent collections and they'll be more difficult to come by as I've seen less and less HOF OJs being put up for auction.

That is one heck of an accomplishment - congratulations!

I've noticed those McPhees as well. Deacon White seems like a true "white whale".
