Got both of these in today, puts me down to 2 living HOFers left. Also brings me up to 121/225, I'll be surprised if I get any in tomorrow but next week should bring a couple more. 150 here I come.

Nice Roberts! Keep them coming, bud!

Nice Robin Roberts, plus "the original" Frank Thomas!

Ok 3 more in today, the Raschi is the big one because I am only short Billy Martin to have all the deceased Yankees and he died in 88. AL Corwin and Owen Friend also are deceased, The Corwin is badly creased so maybe I could replace that one down the road. I also scanned with the lid up this time let me know if the scans look better.

That Owen is very nice!!


Awesome Roberts, too.

Big update today got 8 in the mail today plus I had 3 others come in ttm since last update. Big Thanks to IndyMann for sending me the Hobie Landrith that he picked up from his local shop and to Dpanthers14 for picking up the Mel Clark as well as 3 others from his shop for me to use ttm, anyone who is willing to do the same let me know I still have about 10 more that I need for TTM use. I had a big paragraph of info on the players typed up but I accidently deleted it. Though this is a big mailday for the set I was upset with myself as I only got about 1/2 of the ones I wanted.

I'm amazed how fast you're worked your way through most of the set. Looks like you'll be getting into the tougher autos pretty soon.

I know its a weird time for an update but working on my site at 2:30 in the morning. I got Clem Labine in today bought off of ebay for 12.50 dlvd. Later today should garner 8 or 9 more I can't remember how many I bought last week.

Another Update today I got these in earlier in the week. I am going to come to almost complete stop on my set because I found out my girlfriend is expecting a baby, I'll try to pick up all the living players I can and a deceased player here or there but not gonna have a ton of huge maildays anymore. I am really glad I got this Kell, there was one that had a nice signature(like this ones) that sold for $50 right after he passed away. I got my Kell for $7.50 the cheapest of all this weeks pickups.

I love the Kell auto. It's a nice clean auto and not the old shaky auto. Very Nice!

Another Mailday this is most likely the last "bigger" mailday for a while. All 5 of these guys are deceased. The Danny O'Connell is HUGE as he is one of the keys to the set he passed away in 1969!

Danny O'Connell- passed away in 1969- paid $204.01
Lou Kretlow- passed away in 2007- paid $15.35
Dee Fondy- passed away in 1999- paid $21.99
William Nixon- passed away in 2000- paid $14.51
Pete Suder- passed away in 2006- paid $9.99

Got another in for the set, first in about 3 weeks. Bob Boyd who passed away in 2004 for $9.99 dlvd. This brings me to 148, only 2 more to 2/3rds done.

You'd think i've done this long enough to link a picture right.

Can't believe you found my thread 2 days later, I don't have Pafko.

I just searched 1954 Bowman. I found the Pafko at an antique mall in centerville indiana. The booth had a lot of auto'd cards. Seems to be legit to me. They wanted 9.7for it. If you want, I would be happy to pick it up. He had a few earlier Bowmans as well. I plan to try and head back over their this next week, or pretty soon thier after. LMK

Have you thought about posting the list that you still need somewhere to make it easier for people to find them? Or if you could email it to me I could keep an eye out and look for more that that booth might have.
