Many years ago, I built a collection of every Topps baseball card featuring players named Dick. With the exception of the 1952 High Numbers, I finished it
Thats alot of Dick for sure... I don't want every Dick ever printed just the funniest ones!

Damn. I was going to make the same sort of set and then I ended up giving away the card that gave me the idea in the first place. Good 'ol Rusty Kuntz of the 1984 Minnesota Twins. 😂😂
You should expand to hockey. Some of the Finnish names are awesome. One of my all time favorites - Jyrki Jokipakka. And since your into Johnson's and Peter's there is the legendary Philadelphia Flyers goalie Pete Peters. 2 Peter's for one. Who doesn't like that?
I cover all sports.. I have a Pete Peters in the collection already.

i saw an SGC 8 chubby at the national for 1400$
I recently had someone buy a couple random football cards and the names gave me a chuckle. I was confident it was a similar collector as the members in this thread.
Been awhile since I last updated.. have had a GREAT year knocking rare cards off my wantlist! any other help or leads always appreciated!
