Whats your focus of collecting this summer?

[VoodooChild]

I've decided to take the summer off. I've been going a little crazy recently and the wife may not be too happy. My collecting purchases are surpassing her shoe/wardrobe purchases which isn't good! I bought my first T206 Feb 20th (the same day I quit smoking cold turkey after 25 years) and just picked up my 50th card (and last one for a little while). I made it a good one - PSA 3.5 Cy Young Glove Shows Tolstoi back. Thanks to fellow board members, I've aslo been able to add a bunch of Pirate Type cards as well.

I'm going to spend the summer organizing and enjoying my collection. I just upgraded my scanner and am thinking about getting collection organizing software. I'll also be adding some albums here on Net54. I'll keep lurking on the forum, but will be staying away from B/S/T!!!

Have a nice summer everyone, stay safe.

Stay strong on the smoking thing. I quit cold turkey also after about 25 years. Never regretted it. Saves a lot of money that you can spend on cards!

I am starting to play around with Obaks...it's a long-term thing. I too would like to thin the herd but like most people on the board the things I would be interested in selling are not things many people are interested in buying.

Accumulating HOF RCs while selling off stuff I don't need. Also, finishing off my t206 McGraw Portrait w/ Cap back run. Still need the AB, SC25, SC30, Uzit, Sovereign, and EPDG. I then hope to move onto another t206 player back run.
