The answer came pretty quickly. I love the Baltimore Orioles....always have, always will. Collect the player or team you love. It really has been a wonderful (and relatively affordable) adventure.

James nailed it here...you have to reach from within and find what really makes you tick. I am currently collecting T206's and had to take on another set to go along with it because I knew it would take me a while to complete it and I didn't want to get bored or/and discouraged. I would check out oldcardboard.com and sift through the different card types and see if any jump out at you...some good stuff here: http://www.oldcardboard.com/ref/galleries.asp

You may be well aware of old cardboard and what it has to offer, but I thought I'd at least throw it out there. Good luck on your next venture, I'm sure you'll grab ahold of something soon!
