Not to hijack a thread, but what kind of cash do you think it would take to do the E95's in G-VG raw or graded, don't really care.
I know I am a T206 addict, but it would be nice to at least think about something else, even though I am 90% I would ever do it. Good luck on your summer project, it sounds a lot more fun than any of mine! Bob |

I agree with the 1934 Goudey set...I think that would be a great start.

I think the 1941 PlayBall set would be a great set to start with. It has some classic cards but most are very reasonable. The low number of cards is important too as you would be less likely to burn out midway through.

Best Budget Set of All Time!
1931 W517 2/3rds of the cards are Hall of Famers! (including variations, 40) A set of 60 can be built for about $2-$3K in VG fairly easy. A few number/team variations, and many color variations too. ![]() It was my first vintage set I worked on when I was a kid. Still like em ![]() |

1956 Topps. Great looking cards, lots of variety, VERY accessible. Probably my favorite post-war set....

you might consider buying a low grade example of any set you're considering going after. Nothing worse than starting a set and then realizing you just don't have any sort of connection to it.

E93, E94, E95, E96, E97, E98s are all small sets and doable although E94s are becoming tougher to find and E98s in nice condition seem to be drying up.

good point... a lot of times I don't know how much I like or don't care for a set until I have a few cards actually in hand.

I agree the 34 set is awesome to build I put one together over 10 years with about a total of a 4 year break inbetween. |

The 1934 Diamond Stars are interesting, have lots of stars and would be one that would be interesting and does not seem too bad on costs. Very pretty cards.

I did an E95 set in all 2/3's (Cobb a 30, Wagner a strong 20, and Plank a 40) for about $4000-4500.

Super list Anthony, I think all of those are all right on.
I am a big exhibit guy so you cant go wrong with the 1921 exhibit set and if on a lower budget the 1922 set. |

Thanks for the replies on the E95.
I might also say the 1933 Delong set would be at the top of my list, but that is just because I love the look of the cards, super cool! I have never owned one, but really like looking at them. I like the write ups and info on the backs too. Bob |

Goudey 4-in-1's - only 36 cards to worry about (unless you care about the backs...), lots of HOFers, only one card that is "expensive" (Ruth). Fun little set.
