I loved baseball and read a lot about the dead ball era stars as a kid. When I learned about the hobby and card shows back in '79 I was floored by the older cards from that era. So while I collect a wide span of things, up through '70's Topps sets, my focus is pre-WWI and 19th century.
Within any era I focus on what I like. Aesthetics of sets and cards are important to me. As my knowledge of the history of cards grew, I became more interested in the historically important, and often times rarer issues.
