My memory may not be totally accurate.

Different find, I believe you're referring to the Skydash collection. https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=88092

Ah...the famous "I mis-remembered"! Thanks for clarifying. That was an amazing find too!

I was thinking the same thing, the Skydash collection as well. The big difference with the Skydash find though was that it was a large number of single, different cards, across various sets. It didn't end up having the same overall effect on specific card issues like the Ty Cobb Tobacco and Black Swamp finds did as those were multiple cards of the exact same player(s) that significantly changed the total number of those cards in the marketplace. All three were great finds, but it is just that the Skydash find didn't have the same overall economic impact on certain cards of other collector's like the Ty Cobb and Black Swamp finds did.
