My focus is rather odd, because there is no focus on collecting anything in particular, per se.
If I find a T206 for $10 in an antique store, I buy it. Not because its cheap, but just because its an old baseball card...but I'm not actively building the T206 set.
Same goes for Zeenut cards, T205s, Goudeys, Indian Gum cards, vintage non-sports cards, Salada/Junket coins, Armour coins, Rold Gold pins, 1970 Topps football cards, old ticket stubs, game used bats, and just about any other oddball vintage baseball / football item that catches my eye.
I like the rescues....the weird, one-off baseball collectible that you find stuck in a book, or in a junk drawer at a yard sale. I'm not actively shopping eBay to finish off any set. I just like the randomness of finding some old baseball or football thing tucked away somewhere.
