My CJs. Been on them for 3+ years at this point with only the Cobb and Wagner to go, hence the sig line. Always thought Id finish and keep for a long time until recently. Either way, I cant image staying at 178/180.

A nice 1961, my birth year, in strong EX or better, raw. I could just save up and buy a set, but what would be the fun in that? I figure picking up a couple of high numbers here and there will give me something to do at shows.

19th century Detroit of course. Some goals have been met, some I expect to eventually meet, and others will keep me searching to the end.

Complete or near complete:
1886 Tomlinson cabinet player set - complete
1887 N172 Detroits, all poses - complete
1889 N172 Detroits, all poses - getting close

& then the subsets that will keep me looking for awhile:
1888 N172 Detroits, all poses
N173 Detroits (one of each catalogued player)
N175 Detroits (one of each catalogued player)

Just over 20 left to finish up an E98 Master set. Also, trying to put a high end E94 set of 30 together. Looking for preferably purples if anyone has any they'd part with, but any other higher graded colors are fine too.

The E94 master set and the D311 set are within "reach" eventually. The T210 set unfortunately is my white whale. It's fun to work on but my hopes of ever completing are next to nada.

'54 is my favorite post war set also.. And the only set I'm trying to complete. I've got all the HOfers and have been slowing picking up commons in small lots, all raw (EX or better). Think I'm about 150 in now, but tend to get ADD when I see something/anything else I want. I've been at it maybe 3-4 years (15-18 years if you count my first HOFer), but in no hurry to finish.

When I was a boy, my dad gave me his 200-ish card collection of 1959 Topps. They were my favorites for that reason. Ten years ago, I finished off the set and gave it to him for Christmas. Even now, I know which cards were his originals. I'll always love that set, and it will stay in our family forever.

As for now, I'm focused on the T201's. I just picked up the Cobb, and WaJo is my last superstar. After that I'll start picking off the commons. I have the 54T set complete, a near complete set of cards from the members of the 1908 Cubs, and am nearing a set of all the players from the Merkle Game.

Default Familytoad Sets

I have sworn off being a set collector.
That's after I finish all of my sets of course.

Working on completing my 1953-1980 Topps Run. (i have less than 600 cards to go)
I am picking away at low grade 52 T, finished 50B and nearing the finish line on 51 B.

Those are low priority sets though, as I am a prewar collector in my heart.

I am collecting/ upgrading T205 Master set (221) after slaying the base set of unique fronts. Not many left but Hoblitzell (no stats) is stoopid!

The set I am most interested in recently may never be complete... e210-2 York Caramels.
Tougher cards than some folks realize. I finished the Type-1 so its a natural progression. Contact me if you can help , I have half the set now.

But for a real collecting goal, I was going to collect a "playing years" card of every HOFer whose career was primarily post 1900. That was too easy, so I added a few older 1800's players and then decided to try and get (ahem) ALL the mainstream set cards of HOFers 1900 to 1980. Yup, really stoopid.

Fun though, while it lasts...

Btw- Murcerfan...um that's an awesome list! Best of luck!

Had a run of 53 to current topps, tough times had me sell off most. Now working on finishing a 52 topps, need about 75 cards, mostly high numbers. Played with 1915 cracker jacks and t207s for awhile. Need about 35 PSA9 or better for my 78 topps set except for a PSA8 #400 all 9 or better. Never have been real focused, will pick up most anything I feel is a deal.
