Does anyone collect only one set?
 

I'm curious how many people only collect one set and not spread themselves out over several. I debate on focusing on only T206 for example but i love so many others too.

I collect three sets, but I get sidetracked easy. T206, 33 Goudeys, 52T. Just finished parting with my tip top breads and glendale hot dogs......but now 19th century types have caught my eye. Dave. ps I might add I'm sticking with graded cards.

Yep, E105. I wouldn't recommend it - it's brutal! :)

I collect e94...n43, my dots miller w/glove master type set...and louisianian sets...and a few others!:)

I only collect t206 cards at this time and every cards in my collection is a t206

I'm always working on multiple sets or subsets, I like the variety. Right now that includes T206 HOF'ers and '61 Topps.

t206.....t206....t206
 

t206:)

I have 4 basic sets going. Elmer Miller type cards as he was a relative of mint who played for the Yankees, 1923 W572 set in raw, Topps Cubs from 1951 to current (complete with all errors and variations - done). And graded E121 Giants and Yankees ( my 1921 World Series Set). Why limit yourself with so much choice out here? Oh, left out my T207 Cubs.

More power to those of you that collect only one set!

I collect one set of type cards :)

38 goudeys are my go to set. The big heads make me laugh

I collect everything from T206 to 67 Topps and everything in between and I consider them all to be in one big set! :D

One set only.
 

T207 - everything else has left the building. Not even really collecting those anymore either as recent life events are priority, but should it come back, that's where it is/was.

Sets
 

I started out collecting T201s almost by accident. I purchased a group of cards with a T201 and a T206 Johnson portrait card in it. The Johnson had almost perfectly round corners and a perfect image.

Then decided to finish the T201 set. However, I got so enthused with the look, feel and history of other sets including T206s and T205s I just couldn't help myself.

I'm an Old Judge kind of guy...

The only thing I collect one of is wives.

Only T206s
 

and it just gets weird from there.

I am focusing on 3 sets right now:

E92 Dockman SGC 50-60
1956 Topps SGC 84-86
1965 Topps SGC 88-96

I collect other stuff too, but everything else takes a back burner to those.

David, how is the 1965 Topps going?


I only collect T206 right now, but I have a complete set of 1965 Topps, every one PSA 9, except #597 Joe Nossek.

I am just getting started. I am at 7% completion with an average of 91.29 (almost an 8.5). Most of those are high numbers, I wanted to get those knocked out first (not that high numbers are that tough for '65). Those blue backs are so prone to chipping that it makes it very difficult to find them in high grade.

I'm thinking about focusing on compeltign a set. I've never done a set before and have always wanted to. I'm thinking of either the T202 set or the 1909 Obaks.

Only collect T205's.

My son, Turner and I have focused on this set for years and it has finally paid off.

Wow! That's a whole lotta gold! (and not many chips). Amazing set, thanks for sharing.

Re: Does anyone collect only one set?
 

I'm going to tweak the question just a bit and give my answer:

Does anyone collect only one set maker?

I collect pretty much anything relating to the Philadelphia Caramel Company.

I have 4 of the 13 sport and non-sports sets they issued and a couple of

items relating to their company.

LA
 

I only collect Louisiana issues, and all of them are tough.

Coupon Cigarettes
Peoples Tobacco
Holsum Baking
Weil Baking
Tango Eggs
Red Sun

It seems that interest in these sets has picked up in the last year or so and the prices have risen dramatically.
