reached 1000 Oswalt cards & 170 autos + top list/poll

[MOFNY]

The collection is remaining steady this year. My #1 most wanted autograph is currently on the bay. Hoping I can snag it in a few days. I have been collecting Oswalt on and off since 2003. My old philosophy used to be just RCs. Then I slowly changed to various autographs. Then I changed to the completist mentality. Granted I am still very much all about quality over quantity. But I will never hesitate to land that lot with 5-10 cards I need. Let it be known that I probably wouldn't have begun collecting again if I didn't stumble upon the BMB in 2005. The FCB is certainly carrying on the #1 aspect of that great MB: community. I can't begin to thank all the great people who sent me freebies over the years. I'd also like to thank Madtrader (from the BMB) who at one point had an Oswalt collection that dwarfed mine. Also like to thank all the great stros fans especially Trevordchi. Trevor is the only collector I have ever traded Oswalt cards to.
I currently sit at 744 different Oswalt cards. Maybe I'll reach 1000 different this year.
Below is my top 10 favorite autographs. Some pricey...some $10. All great though.

Congrats on your collection. That Donruss Elite EE is really nice and even though it's probably the cheapest card there, I really like the Topps Ten auto; nice design and a great photo of Roy.

Here's my favorite for you.

#10, 04 DK is the shizz. Nicely centered sticker too (Also really like 8, 4, and 1)

(I drew that a few years ago, came out ok. The Oswalt is my favorite card from the set..picture wise, I think it's the best so I had to draw it. )
