Awesome collection.
May I ask what was your deciding factor on some of the later HOFers as to which card you chose for your collection?

Most of the cards from the 1960s and '70s were from my childhood, so I actually began this HOF project with those. For the modern players (post 1980), I am able to grab them at a little card shop in my hometown. The guy deals mainly online, but still carries thousands of cards in the shop - usually for $1 each. ($2 for rookies). I generally just have him pull a bunch of cards of the latest inductees, and I choose the one I like the look of best. Often, I'll opt for the earliest year, but sometimes I'll go with a player's best season (MVP, batting title, etc.), or perhaps a season his team won the World Series. Sometimes, just which card I think is the coolest, lol! Thank you for your interest and kind comment.
