When I first got back into collecting (from "kiddo" days) I asked John Spen. about it. I asked a few other folks too but I specifically remember asking him, about the time I bought his E102 Cobby in gd-vg. I forget what he told me (or why I even brought that up) but I personally collect more mid grade stuff than others. I do have a few high grade pieces but those aren't really the norm unless there is something special about the "higher" grade. I am sure Hal can elaborate on that better than me. I do have my T217 Mono type card in an SGC 80 holder, and as everyone knows the Buchner Gold Coin Kelly in an SGC 92 holder. Generally I would rather have more cards in mid grade than a few impeccable ones . Obviously this is exactly why most intelligent folks say "collect what you enjoy". To each their own. !! regards all
