Leon- I recently conversed with a younger member who had no idea the 1994 World Series was canceled. I had to reach down and pick my jaw up off the floor.
I've never stopped collecting, though there some players who I will not collect...my own choice based on my own conclusions.
I do have to correct myself and confess to stopping temporarily at the time of the afore-mentioned strike...1993 was the last year for three of my favorites: Ryan, Brett & Yount. Attending their inductions six years later 'eased my pain'.
