Thinking about switching direction ... good, bad, indifferent, waste of time?

stay with both..go at a slower pace...

To me the only thing that matters is that you like 57 and don’t like 58. I wouldn’t bother putting in the time and effort I collect something I didn’t like. I’d would try to sell the 58 and use the funds to buy 57.

based on everything you've written, sounds like you'd much prefer the 1957 to the 1958. if it were my collection, i'd move out the 58 and get the 57 piece by piece (or ideally as you say, there's a person here who has the opposite problem and you guys can just swap a whole host of cards...but it's probably a longer shot).

I suppose it's possible to locate somebody that's in the same boat as you but "port" rather than "starboard" who hates the '57s and hearts the '58s, but that feels hard. It would probably be easier to simply sell the '58s you've accumulated and use the cash to buy '57s.

Good luck with your transition.
