With these two cards I closed out 1994!

These were the last two cards I needed to close out 1994 in my Ozzie collection. Beckett lists 70 cards but my checklist has 72. 72/72 finally. It is nice to not have to worry about an entire year.

Pinnacle Artist's Proof and Sportflics FanFest All-Stars w/Ripken

Seeing the Sportflics takes me back.

Nice pick-ups.

Congrats! That's quite an accomplishment!

Very nice. That's what so great about the 90's. One could actually "complete" a collection of a player or team. Today, what's the point. Too many BS 1/1's out there making it impossible to do a player collection, let alone a team collection.

Congrats on a nice accomplishment!

Bill

PS, believe it or not, I still have 3 of those Sportsflics. Wish I had known you needed one!

Congrats on the accomplishment and that is one sweet Pinnacle AP!

Congrats! It must be nice to cross off an entire year.

Congrats on finishing off '94! I know as a player collector that's an outstanding feeling.

Thanks everyone. Here is how far away I am on other years (keep in mind this is off of my checklist and I have more cards on mine than Beckett, including some cards that I'm not actually sure exist):

Have
1978 - 1/1
1979 - 4/4
1980 - 3/3
1981 - 14/14
1982 - 15/15
1983 - 25/26
1984 - 30/32
1985 - 25/28
1986 - 57/60
1987 - 56/58
1988 - 68/68
1989 - 69/72
1990 - 67/69
1991 - 48/48
1992 - 90/92
1993 - 77/79
1994 - 72/72
1995 - 89/96
1996 - 95/117

910/960 or 95%

1996 is the killer but they had a lot of hard cards that year.

Congratz, marking off years in one of the best feelings for a player collector. Can you post a list of the 50 you need?

Hey Kevin,

I doubt I have anything for trade that you don't already have. Do you have both series of pencil from 1984? I've had a pencil for years and then found out there were two... bummed me out.

classy guy to collect :!:
