Picked up a Wagner 20 years ago.

Congratulations Jeff!

I did the same thing; picked up the Wagner 20 years ago. Then about four years ago, I began looking for the rest of the set. I still need the three cards in my signature line to finish the set.

Nice! Who was the last E90-2 Pirate to join?

The lesson here is getting the tough card first, for E90-2 that's Mr. Wagner. And congratulations on staying the course for 20 years. Nice picture.

Congrats! Awesome to finish a set, especially one so difficult. Enjoy it,

Thank You for all the nice comments. The Maddox was the last card I picked up. As all of you well know when you only have 1 card left it seems to take forever to find one.

Steve, I would assume that your set is a higher grade or better condition set than mine. I was looking for cards in grades 1-2 to match my Wagner and figured they would be easier to come by and cost less. I paid up for the Babe Adams PSA 5 because it was the one available. I wish you the best of luck in your search and would like to see a picture of your set if you are willing to share it. Jeff

Actually, mine are all PSA 1-2 / SGC 20-30. My Wagner is a PSA 2; when I bought it in 2003, it was a GAI 2.5.
