1911 T205 Gold Borders - Basic
SET COMPLETE: 51.46%
GPA: 5.007
2020: Submitted my raw T205 set—approximately 150 cards—to PSA at a local show in Columbus, OH. The overall average grade came back around PSA 4.2. COVID hits soon after.
2021: Continued filling gaps in the Basic Set, became hooked on the PSA Registry and committed to completion.
2022: Reached a key milestone: just four cards away from completing the T205 Basic Set in PSA 4–6 grades. Began targeting higher-grade variations when available, despite their increasing premiums.
2023: Restructured the collection during the Chicago National, selling off all cards graded PSA 4.5 and below to improve overall quality and Registry GPA. Hindu find occurs in NYC—an unexpected and exciting addition to the journey.
2024: A transformative year. Sold some key cards from the set at exceptionally strong prices which funded the down payment on a new home.
2025: Strategy has shifted to selective acquisitions only. Secured two Drum backs via trade, both adding character and rarity to the collection. Mid-grade examples have become increasingly elusive, and with focus waning slightly, the chase has grown more complex. |

New York Giants Schedule Postcards (1932)| Despite having 22 players in it, this set is barely known apart from the Carl Hubbell variety printed on thinner paper. At some point in 1932, not long after the set was produced, it seems the Giants decided to drop all the others and just mass-produce the Hubbell card. Now Hubbell is easily found but the others almost never show up anywhere. I would love to acquire more of them! Jim Van Brunt wrote a great feature on the set in Old Cardboard magazine. |

Miller (7/2/25)| Resilient Miller came to rescue and quickly bounced back from the trauma of a horrific abandonment. His ability to shake off the bad and embrace the new is testament to a great upbringing somewhere in his past.
