1. I bought my 2nd pre-war card on eBay 08/21/09 1933 Goudey Travis Jackson. That's when I really began collecting pre-war. Actively collected till a couple of years ago. I actually owned a t206 Downey Fielding before the Jackson , but honestly I can't even remember where it came from. I was an avid collector 72 (2nd grade) thru about mid 90's. I'm sure I picked it up at a show "just to say I had one" but didn't catch the pre-war bug back then.
2. Probably owned max 1200 or 1300 pre-war cards at the pinnacle of my pre-war collecting days (mostly t206, 33 goudey, t205, t207, e90 and it's brethern - the "easy" cards to get)
3. Right now I own 530 pre-war cards
4. Most significant are 3 cobb t206's and 4 33 Goudey Ruths. Nothing even remotely rare.
5. Although I'm a set collector at heart, I no longer own any complete or near complete pre-war sets.
