Personal collection, but I do sell dupes (hard to keep track of what I have at times) and raw versions once I obtain graded examples. I went from finishing a T206 set to collecting modern slabbed cards; quite the difference. I'm sure at some point I'll get tired of trying to keep up with the latest releases and sell them off, but having fun at the moment.
Jason, it does seem odd to go from prewar to modern like you did, but I'm in the same boat. Although I haven't completed any set yet, I collect pretty much anything...from T206's to anything modern. In my opinion, it's refreshing to go back and forth from old to new...different eras and different things to appreciate about them. I love collecting VG type cards from 100+ years ago and Gem Mint cards from today...never gets old!! Good luck on your ongoing Harper collecting quest...very impressive indeed!
