I guess prohibitively expensive is relative.
The 52 set is loaded with Dodgers high numbers, so aside from the Robby, Campy and Reese who are all a pretty penny, it makes for a really expensive team set in my eyes.
One of the only post war Dodgers team sets I have not completed for the team (and that pesky Rose RC for the 63 T set).

One thought is working on a run of Dodgers players, which is an amazing group of players in the set, and none are prohibitively expensive, except perhaps for the Robinson.

The other thought, which I'm leaning towards, is doing a short run of cards 1-80. Another thought I've had is trying for a master short run, getting black and red backs, the Page/Sain error, and some of the color varieties.

But I"m definitely enjoying buying raw cards. Much cheaper than slabbed, and it's nice to not sweat grades so much, and focus more on visual appeal.

A few items in honor of my favorite player as a kid.

The first is a 1971 Ticketron Steve Garvey.

And these just came back to me yesterday from my first "through the mail" autograph request in almost 40 years!
