Joining this site a couple months ago I started enjoying looking at the T206s that other collectors post. So I jumped in and started collecting Detroit Tiger T206s. I purchased a few on this site and made it up to 8 T206s. I mentioned to my brother (who lives out of state) that I started collecting Tigers. He says "Oh, I saw a Boss Schmidt at a local antique store." He picked it up for $15. So, I'm up to 9!

Frank, if you would please update my number.
I sold Fred Clarke portrait (#92) and Clark Griffith portrait (#195) as I will be upgrading them. That dropped me to 21. I've added ten new cards: 424. Admiral Schlei, catching 407. Dutch Revelle 379. Jim Pastorius 508. Kaiser Wilhelm, with bat 229. Fred Jacklitsch 257. Johnny Kling 524. Heinie Zimmerman 242. Tim Jordan, portrait 332. Chief Meyers 110. Sam Crawford, throwing Best of all, only the Revelle and Schlei are graded. The Revelle a PSA 4 with an Old Mill back, and the Schlei a PSA 5 with a Sweet Cap factory 649 overprint. The rest will be arriving in a glorious, unslabbed state. ![]() Please update my Monster number to 31. Thank you!

Hi Frank,
I recalibrated to get HOFers so my number is down to 28. I'm very happy to have more HOFers though! Thanks.

I've been at that number for about a year now, aiming at 518, and hoping this post will break the impasse.
Meanwhile, I've been continually upgrading my collection [aiming at F-VG+ ungraded], and I do enjoy that. I suspect that the chase is more fun than the accomplishment, and that I'm in it for a lifetime. |

495.9.......55bv. George Brown (Browne) (Washington). And so it goes, the hunt continues. My monkey has grown impatient, though. He has developed a taste for other morsels (T207,T210,T212, etc.) so as not to starve during the interim.

No longer a toddler, the Monster Number thread now enters its fourth year.
Views are up nearly 50% from previous years. Once again over 400 posts per year. 7759 new cards were added this year. I'm sure there are no dupes on the list. ![]() Will this ever end? When Kentucky runs out of bourbon is my guess. ![]() ![]() ![]()
