I Score the Matty

Steve that's a lot of bunny's you sure...but then again I know you're a bit biased when it comes to Mathewson...since it seems like you have them all per our last little Matty match game.

[sabrjay]

I totally forgot about Barry Sloate's auction. I had placed a bid on this card thinking I would track it to see what it sold for. I didn't expect to win it

With bat resting on his shoulder - what could be more fitting?

Gil..not sure I follow...only two poses for Bergen Catching and Batting...

looking forward to freeing the matty for lionel's sake...hmm maybe i should video-tape the process in case something goes wrong and i can youtube it for you guys to enjoy me cutting the card in half

[sabrjay]

The money I have budgeted for the trip is already set aside. The money spent on this card was money I got from the cards I sold in REA. The one nice thing about it is that I have knocked out one of the biggies from the t205 set.

I've been pretty luck with T211s lately; these new additions to my set bring me to 9/75.

[sabrjay]

You going for the boxers too, or just the baseball players?

75 Red Sun baseball players isn't tough enough??

btw I think t209/t210/t211 is a nice group of sets to chip away at zach...

[sabrjay]

If it was just about anyone else but Zach, I wouldn't have asked, but he is a collecting stud

Jay

[mzm55]

I’m not currently collecting the boxers, Jay, but I do own the Jefferies card from the set (T226).

Thanks, Ben, I really enjoy the hunt. I have a lifetime to complete the set (I refer to all three issues as one large master set. In total (excluding T209-1s since I’m not a big fan of those guys, yet ?) there are 937 cards making up the three sets; currently I own exactly 20 percent of the whole thing.

[sabrjay]

Nice dent in that quest. If you have the Jefferies, then that's a good type card to have of the boxers

Trying to save money for the trip to Italy but I couldn't resist, my other HOFer OJ is Ward Horizontal, thought this would be a nice compliment:

[bowlingshoeguy]

Wonka, I think Gil's joke had something to do with the fact Bill just didn't hit.

lee the b/w oj will not fit with your colorful t206s/t3s basement tiling!

[bowlingshoeguy]

I guess I will have to put my pink OJ up on the wall:

[TheBig6]

Nice Pickup's Guys. Many Bunny points warranted.
