I just added the front image of my one thousandth different Herschel Walker card today and it was an image which had been missing for a long time. It's the 1996 Pacific Silver #298. It was the first time I've ever seen one come up for sale in all the time I've been collecting Walker cards. Of the four possible colors, the copper and blue I got fairly quickly. The red took a long time to find, but I finally obtained one. However, the silver version eluded me for years. I'm so glad to finally nail it down and fill in a space, long vacant at the TCDB.

There's no intrinsic value in cardboard, but there's a lot of value in doing something you enjoy!

Wow, that's amazing. I have a lot of cards and the most I have of one player is about 350.
1,000 is incredibly impressive.

Congratulations!
I was wondering what you would find for number 1000!

Congrats on 1000. I couldn't imagine that many for one player. Heck, some of my PCs don't even have half that many total cards nvm what have in hand.

Great job on 1000!! Hershel was a great running back. I remember seeing Walker play for the NJ Generals against the LA Express and Steve Young back in 1983 at the LA Memorial Coliseum. Buster Posey retired so it won't be easy but give me a few more years and I hope to join you.

1000 is a big milestone, I think. I have over 1200 of a player and that is not even 15% of all of his cards. That is hard sometimes but with all of the stuff (inserts, parallels, etc.) the list never goes down. Sometimes I hope the players I collect will suck and not be around long so it limits the card list. I hope for defensive players and back ups. Love the hobby, though and congrats on the achievement. To many more.
