Good stuff!

For 2017, my goals are not going to be as broad but focused on a few cards that I have wanted to own for a long time, and get some items back that I had to sell over the years.

- 1952 Topps Mays PSA 3-4
- 1933 Goudey Ruth 181 PSA or SGC 2-4
- 1960 Lake to Lake Hank Aaron
- game used bat of Pete Rose and Mike Schmidt
- start collecting focus on a HOF player set
- consider adding to a vintage Star Wars figure collection

Looking forward to reading some goals here! This a great message board, and happy to be a part of it.

Happy New Year to all!

with the year almost over, I think it is official for me at least .....

didn't add the 52 Mays
added the Ruth PSA 4
added the Lake to Lake
no bats
started (and stalled) on HOF set (still not sure which direction I want to go)
added some SW figs

and had a lot of fun!

2018 will be here soon!

Happy Holidays and Happy Collecting!

Congrats! I really loved seeing your Lakes Aaron...one of the nicest I've seen. Missed the Ruth but wow!! And the nice thing about missing some goals is having some things left on the list for 2018!
