1. How long have you been collecting pre-war cards?
I purchased a T206 Addie Joss when I was a kid. I started again around 2008. 2. What is the approximate largest number of pre-war cards/items you've ever owned at any one time? 75 to 80 3. Approximately how many pre-war cards/items do you currently still own? 2 4. What is/are the most significant card(s)/item(s) you currently own? (Not what you may have owned at one time.) My favorite obtainable card of all time is my 1921 E121 “Babe” Ruth series of 80. My next three significant cards are my 54 Topps Aaron, 55 Topps Clemente and (gulp) 2000 Bowman Tom Brady. I have always enjoyed Poor condition cards because they allow me to own a piece of history that I normally wouldn’t have been able to afford. 5. What complete sets or near complete sets (say 75% or more) do you currently own? (Again, not counting sets you used to own, and only counting the baseball cards in multi-subject sets in determining the percentage complete. And not including as sets any issue with only 1 or 2 listed baseball cards/items in it.) None. The oldest set I ever owned was a 1956 Topps set that I built and once I completed it I no longer enjoyed it and sold it soon after. That was it for me with set collecting. The hunt was more fun than owning it. I did once have about 40 or 50 1933 Goudey’s including three Ruth’s and a Gehrig but I lost interest. I do have a 1975 Topps set in poor to fair condition, lol. |
