Default set collectors?

Posted By: eric-gi

I collect a variety of sets - mostly boxing and non-sports. I have most of the T218 set, most of the T220 white border set, and need only 7 cards to finish the T220 silver border set. I also have about two-thirds of the T36 auto-drivers set. I've also got sets of tobacco silks and blankets.
I stopped collecting vintage baseball cards a long time ago. When the slabbing craze hit and a $100 card in nm condition suddenly went for $500 as a PSA 8, I knew it was time for me to get out of the baseball card market. I've always been a set collector and so I just changed my collecting interests from vintage baseball to vintage boxing and non-sports. It was an easy transition for me. I just don't have the money to assemble sets of T205, T206, etc.

Also, I see the name Dan Mckee on here. Is this the same red haired Dan Mckee from the Baltimore area? He used to sell baseball cards at shows in the Washington DC area.
