DavidI'm a newbie to vintage card collecting. I'm currently working on finishing 54 Bowman and 56 Topps sets, which I guess would barely qualify as vintage by Old Cardboard standards. I'm wondering if there is a pre-1950 set that someone of limited financial means would have a reasonable chance of completing. Cards don't have to be near-mint - G/VG is fine. I'm also working on a set of Salutation exhibits. I guess that would qualify as vintage and reasonably easy to complete, except for the Gehrig and a few others. From my observations of recent card shows, it seems that most vintage cards get graded now by dealers, regardless of condition. Does anyone have tips on sources for lower condition, ungraded cards? I've seen a few on Ebay. Thanks for the help.
