Having cut my collection in half by selling my 1957-1980 topps sets, I am further 'culling' by selling off several T206 and other PSA-graded cards that do not hold my attention.
My recent focus has been high-grade Mantle & Koufax cards which will take the place of many of the cards I am parting with. I have only the '57, '58, '60, & '62 Mickeys to go. There are also a few cards in Leon's auction that I hope to land. The idea is to wind up with a 'tighter' collection with better sustained value. This is all driven by the pessimist in me, preparing for my operation, but trying not to leave a lot for the family to 'clean up' should something 'bad' occur. The proceeds will also help pay for the portion of the medical bills not covered by my high-priced, but at least available, health insurance. . .
