As a Ron Santo collector who has a vast majority of his stuff I couldn't miss it. Biggest holes now are all of the Venezuelan variations none of which are or will likely ever be in my price range.Hackenbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15507810776309048794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117013339527801809.post-86793218639652768862017-08-12T22:20:27.885-05:002017-08-12T22:20:27.885-05:00If you spent years trying to track it down for you...If you spent years trying to track it down for your collection, then I'd consider it a whale.
