Now, for some reason, due to collecting as a kid in the 80's, I am completely content with keeping my 1980's sets because once in a while for nostalgia reasons, I like flipping through the sets.
Another thing I could suggest since Prewar HOF's are hot, you could not only pick up some key 1950's graded rookies/HoF's -- but, also some prewar -- if that interests you, maybe picking up some T206 HOF's, etc. Now obviously the grades would be lower, if you're looking for the same value of the postwar key cards.

Jason, it's funny you mentioned the 80s because I have been going through the same nostalgic phase for the last year. It has been a blast picking up the cards I couldn't afford as a kid! Regarding your point about T206 HOFers, that had crossed my mind as well. I appreciate your perspective. You have been there and done that.
