Hello Sirguardian, I'm a little confused on your comment, or if there was a question there or not. I'm a collector on this project. My previous comments make that clear, that attaining a matched pair, is the crown jewel of my collection, and that I have no intention or interest in selling my matched pair. This is not an investment for financial gain, its for what every collector strives for, a personal goal to find a rare piece of history. I've made other matches In this project, and gave my half away to other collectors involved in this endeavor so we can all share in this sense of accomplishment. I'm just trying to do my part in helping this project succeed, by attaining as many notes as I can afford, to increase probability of future matches. I believe the database has nearly 10,000 notes listed amongst other like minded collectors. Hopefully you will find interest in what we're doing, and join in. Previous posts provide the contacts to the gentleman leading this project and maintaining the database. I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read about this historic project!

Great job Lawest, That last one was so close, there's one already on the list as B06914320* Keep up the great work! Every note added helps increase the odds of a match. You never know when your going to get that email saying you got a match, it's very exciting.

Absolutely, that would be in the range!  Then just go to the current list and check if it's there, and submit the notes details to Mr Winograd who will get it on the next list to go out. Then your on your way to having fun and making matches!

Did you also email them to Karol Winograd? He's the keeper of the database and by emailing the information to him, it establishes his ability to send you the updated spreadsheet every few weeks, and is the contact he will use to let you know if you have a match! In case any of you need his email again, it's..... Kwinograd@snet.net He's very friendly and will be happy to send anyone who wants a list, to them. Looks like a lot of good notes you guys have been adding lately. Next week when a couple more shipments get to me, I'll be listing some more too.

Hello all, I talked to Karol Winograd this morning and he said he didn't get these recent notes by email, but he went ahead and added them to the spreadsheet from this thread. However, could you still please send him a quick email, simply so he can create a contact for you. Your contact information stays private that only he knows. As you can see on the below picture of the spreadsheet, it only lists the note information, and the owner information only shows initials and State the note is in. So your identity is protected. Thanks everyone for getting involved!

Perfect, thank you! Now if you match an existing note, or sometime in the future someone matches you, they will be able to get in touch with both collectors. Come on everyone, join in!!

Well, over the last few days I've added over 350 notes to the project, which now has over 10,000 notes listed!
Normally I put pictures of the list I submitted, however with such a large volume, I'm now submitting them by email on a spreadsheet, which makes it easier for Mr Winograd to add.
Mr Karol Winograd, the keeper of the master spreadsheet, has taken the time to teach me about Excel. I really want to thank him for that.
Things are picking up again, more collectors are starting to learn about this project and are submitting notes. Thank you everyone for your contributions.
The end of last year, one collector had a pair, now there are 7 matched pairs, with 6 different people having a matched pair in their personal collection!
That's incredible!
Keep it up, who knows, you may be the next one to make a match!!

Hello everyone! It's taken forever, but I finally found a couple more BEP packs, and a partial one to add! Hope this will kick start some more matches!  Take care and stay healthy!

Well this Covid thing really messed up the roll we were on! But......We're back!!     We just made an 8th matched pairing!!  I recently acquired a New BEP pack, and it had a matching FW note to the DC note that Rich in New York has! At this point Rich and I are going to wait, and hope we make another match so we can do an even trade again! Quick update, the collector in VA has sent his in and received them back from grading. I'm still awaiting his permission to post the picture of his pair. The four other owners have all sent there's to Mr. Zegers's who is sending them as a group for grading. So hopefully more to follow soon! Still time to get in on this!

Here's the images of the second graded pair. This is owned by a collector in Virginia. There are four other pairs at PMG now being graded. Will bring you those images when I receive them.
