I believe I referenced this briefly in a previous post. My collecting took a decided turn in the early to mid-90s. Up until then I collected ALL sets, nowadays that's impossible. So here is my dilemma:
BASEBALL: I need to back collect to @the mid-90s - present but not all years. What would the BEST sets to concentrate on [only 1 maker/year] . I like Archives and Heritage Sets, so if you have a better option. please LMK. I also collect A's but no special players.
FOOTBALL: Pretty much the same with Football except Archives and Heritage sets seemed to have stopped production. So what sets are next in line? I also collect Eagles and Peyton Manning.
BASKETBALL & HOCKEY: All inventory is being sold or traded off EXCEPT HOFers, RC w/value, ERR/VAR/COR cards and logo stickers. I expect any additions will have to come from trades.
MULTI-SPORT, ALL MISC SPORTS etc. Probably same as Basketball & Hockey, I also have a Hometown Hero Collection that covers any sport to non-sports. Tatum>Gesicki>Truex>the Shirelles. I can trade or buy.
NON-SPORTS: Really any sets that catch my eye, covering all categories. So not sure what would help? Trade or buy.
SPECIAL COLLECTIONS: 1. ERR/VAR COR cards and sets. 2. Team Logo Stickers 3. Non-sports stickers. I also add as many Vintage cards as possible to add to my older set collections
Ambitious, YES, Impossible, absolutely not. Budget is not a problem but time is at certain times of the year. I also have a huge start on all the above. Do you want me to signature like Commish? lol.
Please share your thoughts, ~BOB~
