i started collecting T206 when i was your age...(16 years ago)...keep plugging away...

i am happy to see that you have an interest in vintage (T205 is a great set to start working on)...read books, do research, look at past N-54 posts, etc...talk to older collectors, be a sponge, learn as much as you can about all the different variations, rare backs, etc...know the sets that you are collecting, inside and out.

i currently collect:

high grade T206 & low-mid grade rare backs

rare/important world series ticket stubs (1919, 1927, etc...)

...and just started T200 Fatima


best of luck!

p.s. learn about the players & history of the game, it will make collecting more enjoyable & exciting.
