<< <i>I dont anticipate ever owning an entire 52 set, but I thought it would be cool to do one right here with everyones help. Lets post cards in numerical order of the entire set until we reach the Mathews. Graded, raw, beaters, whatever you have. I think it will be cool to see the set this way.
Rules:
1) You must own the card(s). No ebay pics or borrowing pics from someones registry. 2) Lets try and do this a card at a time or a few at most, that way everyone can contribute. 3) Have fun!!!
I'll start it out.

I was thinking #48 or 49. But I couldn't stand it. As for the rules... I own the card , It was my first post and I did have fun! Won't happen again unless...

Didn't really want to show this ugly card but it's for the cause. Former Seattle Rainier Gordon Goldsberry here. We need to make hay today posting before the game today fellas.
Ted (RipublicaninMass) has some autographed hi #s. Hopefully he sees this thread.

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
ENOUGH HI # TALK. Where the heck is JOE PAGE? JOHNNY SAIN and MARV RICKERT better be ready right after him!
STAY HEALTHY!

This is starting to slow down guys. Since it's the OPs thread, I need him to agree as well as you other guys. How about if two hours go by and nobody posts a card then anyone can post that card? This is a GREAT thread and I'm looking forward to seeing it all the way to #407, Eddie Mathews.
STAY HEALTHY!

Sorry guys and basherboy I shouldn't have posted 3 straight, I guess I jumped at Doug's request to move on. I think what happens is we all have to go to work so it limits the time to post. I'm confidient we will keep the cards going. I'll back off until tonight if the thread needs a card.
I should have clarified my suggestion. Since this is DOWNTOWN1974's thread, I think he should respond to my following suggestion.
Post ONLY ONE card at a time. PLEASE stay in order. If nobody posts for two hours (yes, even if you "called" a certain number earlier in time) then ANYONE can post the next card ... even the person that posted the previous card.
I think this will give everyone a chance to show off their cards WITHOUT having to wait too long for them to do so.
WHAT SAY YOU GUYS?
STAY HEALTHY!

<< <i>The fronts of the Boone's are a shade different.
Does the shade there always correspond to the color of the back? >>
It must be the different print runs for the red vs. black backs. The two Jones' cards have a slight different background color too. I wish the one Boone was better centered. I'm thinking all red and black back cards are a little different in color.

<< <i>I got about 40 high numbers. But not the Mantle. Could be a stall at 311. But I got at least the 6 after that. >>
Several guys here have Mantle. That's great you have 40 hi's. Things are looking up.
