Kinda did that when i did Mantle run, after i got the 52T, i just hit a wall, and didnt really want to acheive deeper into oddballs. So i took the RC route. When i hit a rut, i find myself dabbling into vintage Hofers.

"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true."
--Lt. Cmdr. Spock, "Amok Time" ![]() Just look at the acquisitions threads here and find something else interesting to chase. Perhaps a regional or oddball issue where you don't have thirty of them sitting on eBay every day.

My recent card was a Joe Dimaggio. I got the 1951 Berk Ross, since it was the last year of his career and affordable. Prior Grail was a card of Babe Ruth which was from Harrington's Ice Cream, that I acquired in 1980

I've been there. When I got my 1960 Venezuelan Topps Mantle, I considered selling my collection since there was anything special (that I could ever justify spending the money on) to purchase. I still enjoy discussing cards though and have started going after cheaper collectibles of his--matchbooks, postcards, etc. if you like Mays, why not go for a run of his cards? Or atleast post a picture of your grail!
