I'm SO close to getting back to 85% of Belle's cards... should hit it this weekend with a COMCs shipment incoming and about half a dozen eBay items incoming as well. Do you think I'll ever get to 90%? Probably not but that's my ultimate goal

What # do you use in the denominator there? ALL Belle cards recognized by some source like Beckett? Including 1/1s? Including significant counts of cards made a decade+ after he retired?

This is every card recognized by Beckett -- including all years he played, before he played cards at LSU and now the cards from when he was reintroduced to the hobby. Also including all Tek card patterns, 1/1s and printing plates. Everything recognized today by Beckett.

Over the years, I've got Beckett to add about 20 cards to this lost through research, pictures, etc. I've also got the, to remove a few by the same ways. It's a pretty buttoned up list but I have probably a dozen cards which still aren't recognized but Beckett can't be perfect I guess.

So these happened.

Bought the lot for the Nellie Fox and Billy Pierce RC's. Fox has a couple of printing lines, but is nice. Pierce shares my birthday. Nice card I want to get signed. The Spahn is super nice. Minor corner wear, no creases. Wil send both the Spahn and Fox in to get slabbed one day. Bought the Yogi for a future custom cut if I ever get around to start doing that like I want to.
