2016 Goals:
(1) Continue to prune back collection and focus more on tough Ruth cards, trying to obtain 1-2 "big" cards (not necessarily Ruth). - Check. I'm very satisfied with my progress on this front. Although I sold or traded off some of my key Ruth cards (1921 E121, Wm Paterson, 1929 Star Player Candy), I also picked up some tough ones (1921 W575-1 H. Johnson, 1923-24 Exhibits). On the non-Ruth front, I picked up a Brunners Bread Cobb and Ramly Walter Johnson.
(2) Continue to make progress on small sets (W519-1, W519-2, W521, W590). - Check. This has been very slow going since I only picked up two cards this year for these sets. One in the W519-1 and one in W590. However, that single pickup (Ray Schalk) in W519 Type 1 finished that set, so I'm happy that I finally completed that one.
2017 Goals:
This is going to be continue to be more of the same as the last few years.
(1) Continue to prune back collection and focus more on tough Ruth cards, trying to obtain 1-2 "big" cards (not necessarily Ruth). The big ones here are that I would like to obtain a 1915 CJ Cobb and a E93/94 Cobb, both with decent eye appeal.
(2) Continue to make progress on small sets (W519-2, W521, W590).
