Wanted

Though my collection currently consists of well over 2500 cards, there are still many that I do not have. Some are scarce/rare, others are common, but have just eluded me sofar, or have been more expensive than I am willing to pay. In the table below you find some of the cards that I am specifically looking for. I don't care whether the card is used or not, only in used condition on an older card, any text in the image of the card diminishes the value.

I would appreciate a scan with asking price for any card you might have. Please send an email to: tiemen@halpostcards.com if you have any of these cards, or any other cards for sale. I am interested in cards in any condition or quantity, from a single card to a whole collection.
