This is exactly me with regard to the main part of my collecting focus. Although my cutoff was 1955 and it probably should have been a year later. The pain I felt dishing out for the Clemente RC wasn't offset by the feeling of accomplishment I got from completing the set.

Now, with regard to my signed 1960-1963 Fleer sets, I know I will never be complete and that is okay. It isn't my primary focus and I went in with that understanding.
