My goal is to remain in auto-pilot on my current projects, pare down/organize my collection a bit more, and not actively look to start new projects.
here are my auto-pilot goals:

Hitting the 4-0 this year. Putting a few things ahead of baseball cards. Gotta think about my health and life insurance and future things around the household. Might make 1-2 purchases, but not seeing too much extra-curricular spending.

So Furio seems out of place even though a great player. Why the collection of his? |

We moved to Reading, PA a few years ago. About the same time, I got the bug to collect cards again. I had always collected 1963 and newer stuff. I wanted to focus on player sets and key rookies. I also wanted to collect a player from the 50s. I've always loved the stories from that time. However, at my current point in life (30, with kids), most of the big guns of that time, Mantle, Berra, Mays, Jackie, etc would be tough with my current budget. Then I found out Furillo was from a small town near Reading. I started learning about the type of player he was. Outstanding regular that was overshadowed by the stars and story lines of those great Brooklyn teams. A few of his cards have become some of my favorites in my collections, even if they aren't the most valuable. Anyway, enough of my rambling, here's link to my sets. As much as I can I try to scan everything I have. http://www.psacard.com/psasetregistr...othersets/2454 (p.s. Check out the Frank Robinson rookie. That's the newest addition and one of my 2016 highlights!!) |
For postwar baseball I'd like to do this w/o spending a ton:
--Add another 1968 Atlantic Oil SP; as long as it is a wish list, how about Banks? --Finish my 1971 Topps Super set (14 to go) --Finish my 1972 Kellogg's ATG set (4 to go but all Ruth, Gehrig and Cobb) --Add a few more to/upgrade my Aaron, Koufax and Rosen collections --Pick up a few more nice 1971 OPC stars --Upgrade a few Nolan Ryan cards |

Just went through all your PSA items and the cards are awesome looking. A couple that stand out to me are, of course the F. Robby rookie, but really like the '60 Topps Brooks and the '66 Vene Palmer. Those three are my favs. |
