CJ set collectors - how long have been working on it?

[Cardboard Junkie]

Aloha my friend! I have started cj's 3 or 4 times and actually got to over 100 diff. but always tired of them....I think it is the all red backgrounds that bored me. I love other sets but love the "full color issues" b and w just never did it for me. hence I have stayed with 206's and some goudeys (hof type cards, (color)) and my fave 52t's to 56 topps and early color bowman isues, not to side track your thread but are there others who are "turned off by b&w issues? aloha, dave.

Started in 2004 - three cards away from complete 1915 set. Wow should I apologize for starting you off on the journey Steven?

I had been out of baseball cards for decades and had just recently started looking at what out there and prices when I happened to see that Topps had released the 2004 Cracker Jack. Until they made that set I had never heard of the 1914/14 Cracker Jack set. One look on eBay and I started to pick them up whenever I could. I certainly have met some great CJ collectors along the way!
