A little background... I collected baseball cards heavily in the 1970s. I amassed a decent collection of Topps cards; a complete, four sharp corners, collection from 1952-1978 (when I traded them for coins). I've dabble a little here-and-there since, but I have never collected vintage baseball cards.
Jump forward a few years, a family and me always away from home. I spend most of my time in Iraq and Afghanistan which complicates my ability to "see" the cards; hence my final decision on which group of cards I'll collect. I looked at collecting T206s from Indianapolis, a simple group of 5 and a larger group with back variations. I looked at collecting all T206s in PSA 4. I looked at a type collection of 100 vintage "cards", a type collection of Topps from 1951 to 1975 (including all inserts). I looked at a Topps Pete Rose collection. I've done all this from my computer in Afghanistan. I finally found my niche: Indianapolis players from 1887-1915. The cards must be in PSA 6/SGC 80 or better and Indianapolis must appear on the front of the card. I know it sounds fairly specific but I can't "see" the card for months (which negates any return policy) and I collect several other things so I needed to minimize how frequently I make new purchases.
