Default Topps?

I started collecting in 1962. I had completed sets from 1960 thru 1986 (Partials 1954-1959) I sold all my sets in 1986 to purchase my first house. I kept my Post Cereal and Jello cards and a few oddballs. (Goudey Wide Pens, Topps World Series cards, Butterfingers etc....) After I got settled I decided to build only Detroit Tiger team sets and finish my Post and Jello sets. So, I have been buying new cards and and rebuilt the Tiger team sets from the Fifties up. I tried to build a couple of Heritage sets but, all the SP's and everything... I gave up. I am now working on a 2012 Topps Gypsy Queen set (my 50th year of card collecting) I like the new cards but building a set is way to hard. So, I stick to Tiger Team sets including Heritage, A&G and Gypsy Queen. If the Topps brand stops or gets transferred I will probably quit because whoever ends up with it....well there would be huge changes given the current market. I would probably work on vintage Detroit Red Wing cards. (Sorry for the length of this)
