Jay, I'm in the same boat you're in, and thinking exactly like you. I have 20 different pre-war sets where I'm down to needing only three cards or less to complete them, and less than 10 cards to go on 8 more pre-war sets. And also like you, a lot of the still missing ones are the really rare cards, or the big stars.

My biggest problem is I'm also a bit of a type card collector as well, and always get distracted when something different or unusual pops up that I may not have seen in quite some time, if ever at all before. However, it does make it a blessing from the collecting standpoint in that no matter where or what show or AH sale/auction I go to or look at, I always seem to come across something I'm interested in. I guess that can also be looked at as a curse as well. LOL

1) Knock one Seattle Zeenut off my want list. Picked up one during 2021 (1933-36 Page). Currently have 244 and need 8:

1921 Adams, Lane, Stumpf
1926 Brady, Eldred, Hasty, Plummer, Ramsey

2) Add at least 25 T206

I wouldn't mind grabbing another nice Goudey Ruth 144....

I can add a few actual Hobby goals:

If the National happens and if these guys are there to sign, have these signed:

Trade into the last few T206 portraits I want (no, not Wagner and Plank, smartasses...exclusive of those two). I need a handful of the minor HOFers plus the Mathewson. Also be nice to score a T206 Speaker.

1933 Goudey Ruth #181.

My goal for 2022 is to finally finish my 1939 Play Ball set. I am 7 cards short. I got all the HOF's already, so no big names left, but 6 of them are harder to find high #'s.

Another goal is to pick up a nice, big top bordered, T206 Cobb, Bat Off to complete the 4 Cobbs. But this one has proven elusive with a big top border and full other borders.
