1. How long have you been collecting pre-war cards?
I think I bought my first one, a 1933 Goudey common, around 1980.

2. What is the approximate largest number of pre-war cards/items you've
ever owned at any one time?

I would guess around 500.

3. Approximately how many pre-war cards/items do you currently still own?

Same as above, I very rarely part with any cards.

4. What is/are the most significant card(s)/item(s) you currently own?
(Not what you may have owned at one time.)

Probably my 1933G Ruth and 1933 and 1934G Gehrig, along with two T206 Cobbs, Wajo portrait, and 14CJ Wajo. But others could be up there, too.

5. What complete sets or near complete sets (say 75% or more) do you
currently own? (Again, not counting sets you used to own, and only
counting the baseball cards in multi-subject sets in determining the
percentage complete. And not including as sets any issue with only 1 or
2 listed baseball cards/items in it.)

I'm a type collector with an eye towards stars and HOFers, so I really don't concentrate on building sets, but I do have:
W551
1933 Delong
1935 Goudey
and postwar, 1948 Bowman
complete.
