Default How do I get started on a prewar baseball collection?

Posted By: Justin Mckinney

I am looking to get the rookie cards of all the members of the HOF. Just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to start such a collection? I know Ebay is a great resource, but where else is there to look. Also what advice do you have for pricing?

I am looking for cards ranging anywhere from PSA 1 to 4, as long as they are not stained or torn.

I am only looking for cards from the main sets: T206, the 1888 issues, 1914-15 Cracker Jack, and 1933-34 Goudey, and 1939-41 Playball, except for guys like Dave Bancroft, George Sisler and a couple others whose rookies are in the the early 20's Caramel sets, and Plank and Wagner who I would like to get the E90 Caramel cards..

So I guess I can sum up by saying, where can I look, and how do I know what a good price is? Also I live in Calgary, Canada, and no dealers are within a thousand miles of me.

thanks for reading,
Justin
