There are so many types and ways to collect, so you might find your niche in that area.

I think the one thing about the rise in prices, however, it's led many of us to find different collecting interests, or approach something we wouldn't before.

For an example, being of Mostly, Italian descent, and hearing stories in my childhood, My great uncle would always tell stories about Carl Furillo. He was a hardcore Brooklyn Dodgers fan, and Furillo was his favorite player. I've recently started slowly buying Furillo cards and really enjoying the little project I'm putting together.
