Collecting suggestions?

From an affordability standpoint, the T201 Mecca Double Folders set should be considered.....

Some great suggestions here so far. To these I might add collecting a player as an option. There are some really great Hall of Fame players from the dead ball era that are surprisingly affordable. If you are going to do a type collection, you could focus one one player like a Roger Bresnahan, who has T202, T205, T206, T207 etc cards, or, if you're wanting to go further back, you might consider Hugh Duffy. Sir Hugh's cards go back into the 1800s--he has a Mayo card and multiple Old Judge cards, as well as cards from the T205 and T206 set. Then there's somebody like Eddie Collins, who is seemingly in every set. Besides the T201, T205 and T206 sets, he's also in the T3 Turkey Red cabinet collection, American, Philadelphia and US Caramel, Sporting News supplements like the M101-2, Cracker Jack, Colgan's Chips, and Goudey cards. He's also frequently in strip cards and in the Chicago Exhibit Supply cards. I've considered collecting him. There's something about Cocky you just have to like.

Good luck in finding something that appeals to you!
