Paul,

I bet it felt good to get the N172 Mathews off the want list.

Started these sets:

Sport Kings about half done, still need some big cards though

1914 Cracker Jack HOFer's - about a dozen, may never get a Matty though

E93's, only have 3, still considering whether to move forward

post war

1954 Topps- need 65, mostly commons

Just started reading this board this year and the information is incredible, along with all the other bantering.

Happy Holidays everyone!

-Alan

Sure, Paul. Which one(s) would you like?

By the way, I didn't see the 1948 Early Wynn on your list so I assume that you weren't able to wrestle that one away from its owner.........

It has been a fantastic year. I realized I make a much better full time collector than a part time dealer and I am having a blast! I started an M116 set(60+), T207 set(20+) special thanks to BST, and several dozen cards just, well just because! I picked up my first 5 T200's, an E107, an E105, and a couple other rare cards (Thanks Dan K.!). Most of the cards purchased were to be turned for a quick buck, but once in hand, they became hard to let go of....thank you Catherine for the understanding! It has not all been roses. A couple of life lessons were received, but all in all, I have learned to enjoy this hobby of ours a great deal more.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas or what ever you may celebrate and a safe and prosperous New Year!
