Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Here was mine: "My resolution is to stay focused. My goals I guess would be to continue working on the Scrapps set, and locate a copy of Guy Green's "The Nebraska Indians: a Complete History" book."<br /><br />Well believe it or not I located and bought Guy Green's book - which is really unbelievable since I think there are only two known (mine and Yale U's)- and it happened in January!!! I gave up on the Scrapps set and stayed very focused on my areas of interest - even picking up a dream item -something I didn't know existed, but it basically fell into my lap just by asking an ebayer a few questions after winning something else he had listed. (Lincoln panorama)...he's even now a contributor on the memorabilia board.

Posted By: <b>Adam</b><p>My goal was to buy every T206 card (in a PSA slab), except for (1) commons, (2) southern leaguers, and (3) the Big 6, and I was able to do that, so I consider it a good year.

Posted By: <b>Dave Hornish</b><p>Well, if my recently won T206 Red Cobb arrives before the 31st I will have completed my goal of acquiring all 4 Cobbs in 2007 as I get over the first hump of that set. My only goal and I nailed it.

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>&lt;&lt;&lt;To complete the Delong, tattoo Orbit and M116 sets is my resolution, all are doable as I am down to a couple of cards in each set although the Sporting Life duo I need are pricey.<br />Everyone have a safe and happy New Year's.&gt;&gt;&gt;<br /><br />I managed to do all 3 <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> With a tip of the hat to David McDonald whose gift of the M116 Wood made that set complete.

Posted By: <b>Doug</b><p>Yep. It's not exactly pre war, but I wanted to get a 1952 Topps Mantle and I ended up with two of them so I guess I didn't do too bad.

Posted By: <b>Jason Carota</b><p>Goals from previous post:<br /><br /><i>Resolution: Reduce impulse purchases and focus my collection.<br /><br />Most Wanted (all PSA/SGC 3 or under):<br /><br />1. T206 Tris Speaker<br />2. T206 Harry Pattee<br />3. E90-1 Charley Hall</i><br /><br />I have definitely reduced (basically eliminated) impulse purchases. My collection focus has been narrowed to Red Sox players only, with an <i>occasional</i> misc. pickup.<br /><br />As-far-as the "Most Wanted" list goes, I acquired the Speaker (w/ PB back) and the Hall. I didn't aquire the Pattee T206. Since my collecting habits have since become focused on the Red Sox, it doesn't really matter.

Posted By: <b>Jantz</b><p>I didn't post my resolution because it wasn't until The National that I met Leon & he invited me to join. But that didn't mean that I didn't have a resolution at all. I wanted to do two things this year.<br /><br />1. Quit smoking - I haven't had a cigarette in since 1-1-2007.<br /><br />2. Start working on my T206 Cleveland Team set - I probably would have met this resolution if it wasn't for the members on this board. Let me explain. At first I was only going to go for one card of each player, but some of you have motivated me into acquiring some of the different backs also. I am impatiently waiting for my third Wilbur Goode T206 to show up any day now.<br /><br />Thanks again & I hope you and your families have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.<br /><br />Jantz

Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>I guess I didn't really have any specific goals for collecting this year. I think I've changed my focus of collecting away from type collecting to yankee and HOF'er cards I like. I did pick up an e90-1 keeler throwing which I've wanted for a while.<br /><br />pete ullman

Posted By: <b>boxingcardman</b><p>I finished an Exhibit boxing set but then a master set variation popped up. I did get every fighter in the set but I am a back variation short on the known master set.<br /><br />I finished a baseball Exhibit set--for now--the PC back 4 0n 1s. Until a new one surfaces, that is.<br /><br />I did add one more ludicrously tuff O'Doul card: 1952 Globe Printing. <br /><br><br>Sic Gorgiamus Allos Subjectatos Nunc
