Thanks for the responses guys. I definitely have a bend towards HOFers and superstars, but increasingly find myself getting into the obscurities of my beloved Cubbies as well - which may lead to some interesting but hopefully not too expensive collecting from the 1960's and earlier.

As RayB said, there is nothing wrong with collection churn, and I tend to be somewhat unfocused as well. Back in my mid-20's I had some pretty impressive cards slip through my hands (I couldn't afford them in the long run anyway). I remember a '49 Leaf Ted Williams and an E-90 Dockman Cy Young - that I got rid of because I thought it was trimmed, but later saw the same card in a PSA 5 slab. They were fun to have for a time.

I would also at some point like to do a "Book" collection of the scrubs of Boyd & Harris's childhood. Nice with that one there would not be too many condition concerns.
