I've been collecting the set for almost a year now and at last count I'm at 93. I will say that the "obsession" has worn off a little. Staring off with T206's made sense when I first decided to collect Pre-War, but has now led to other interests (E121-80 and Pirate Pre-War Types). I still plan on attempting to build the set, although I doubt I'll ever finish and don't have any goal as to when I plan to do so. I'll continue to look for cards in the Fair-VG (1.5-3.5) range with good eye appeal while concentrating on HOFers, SLers, and mid-rare backs (EPDG's, Tolstoi's, and AB's). At least that's the plan for now. The "thrill" of scoring a card that meets my criteria has been the most fun and I follow Mike C's advice about patience. I also follow the advice of keeping extra funds saved in case the opportunity to purchase cards like these arise:
