Pretty exciting stuff (for me at least) but my 2,500th different Albert Belle card is en route and headed home to the PC! Given Albert Belle only has 2,802 different cards recognized by Beckett, these "milestones" will be few and far in between going forward. For those who care, my ultimate "milestone" will be when/if I'm able to clip the 90% threshold for his cards, which has been tough given Topps keeps adding new cards in new releases, #thankstopps ;)

For those interested, card 2,500 will be a 1/1 actually and here is a sneak peak:

Now for the fun stuff... the GIVEAWAY! Albert Belle had 1,726 career hits in 12 MLB seasons.

Simply guess a number between 1 to 1,726 for a chance to win!

Also, if two people pick the same number, it's the first person to pick that number. Also, it's just closest over/under, doesn't matter.

I'll pick a winner next weekend using random.org and the winner will get this little guy ;)

Good luck everyone and thanks for helping me with my Albert Belle PC for nearly the last 5 years!

Very cool pick up Mac and congrats on the milestone. Are you still working on website for your collection. I would love to see it some of the other stuff you have.

My guess is 1265.

Nice pick up Mac.
This card should be in the "Holy Crap, look at the end Price" thread.
Very surprised the card went for that much, even if it does have 2 HOF'ers.

Thanks everyone for the congrats shout out :)

[MENTION=5592]jszczech[/MENTION] - Yes, it's slowly but surely being built. Just been so damn busy with work and just haven't focused on it just yet but it's one of my 2014 goals, so I have to get it in gear soon!

[MENTION=6366]ASTROBURN[/MENTION] - Thanks man, it is a pretty huge card and happy it's coming home.

[MENTION=2802]klute14[/MENTION] - Haha! Yea, it did cost a little more than what I wanted to spend but such is life. The same care but with Eddie Murray instead of Winfield went for $180 + s/h around the time of the release... so figured the Winfield would be similar or so. Seller wouldn't bite at $125 or $150-ish, so figured I'd love it to a Winfield guy if I didn't bite the bullet.

725, Mac.

And I'm nearly 2500 JJ cards. Obviously, he doesn't have as many as Albert, but you're right, the milestones once you get into that amount of cards and that % of cards in a collection. Congrats again !!!! :p

2500 cards is very impressive. Congrats.
I was at the 'corked' bat game and I usually save my tickets, I will have to look for it for you. Problem is it could be anywhere...I will look though.

My guess is 371
