Funny, for many years I drew the line not much later than that, 1975, because I really liked the Brett rookie. Then it just kept slipping backwards or I guess I should say forwards. No regrets although I suppose if I hadn't spent so much on modern I could have had more and better vintage.

There are some great 70s cards or at the very least some great rookie cards from the 70s. If I had done the 70s I would then justify doing the 80s and beyond. It was the beyond part that scared me. Having to pick between 10 or 100 rookie cards is just too much work for me.

You guys need to get the modern forum hoppin' and poppin'. There are threads on page 1 from early November.

Take this Turkey Red Skip 2 my Lou 1/1. Where do you go next? Gonzo rookie 1/5 patch? Steve Finley refractor 1/150 yellow? Juan Gone 1/25 die cut? At least if you collect the 1933 Delong set, you know what you need.

a couple Ohtani, Trout and Suzuki - and somehow I have become interested in Detroit's Miguel Cabrera - Other than that I'm pretty much Mid 50s and T206

That set is amazing. Soooooo many top players.

HOF collector, so yes. New additions, almost every year.

I wonder how many vintage only collectors are in your boat?
