RichardGreat thread...It's interesting to hear what direction everyone is taking with their collections.
After about 2 years of exclusively collecting George Gibson, my interests have started to wander. For the last couple of months, I have been buying pre-1920 cards that feature Toronto. Since this is a fairly short list (25 cards, not including Colgans), I am also trying to collect the Victoria Obak team set (11 cards), and a card of each Canadian-born player (approx 15).
My goal is to try and stretch this endeavour out for a few years. I anticipate it taking even longer for some of the cards (anyone ever seen Deacon McGuire featured on an N172 with Toronto?!). If my attention lasts long enough to see this through completion, then I may start to go after Montreal and Vancouver teams, too. We'll see!
Regards,
Richard.
