Having lived my entire life in the No. Va. suburbs of DC and always rooted for the Washington teams pretty much explains what I collect and why, as follows:
Post-War:
- Pete Runnels & Mickey Vernon, because they were my favorite Senators when I was a kid.
Pre-War:
- Sam Rice - I'm striving for a master set of his cards.
- Cards of WaJo and all of the other players who were on the Senators 1924 World Series Championship Team.
- N172 Old Judge & N284 Buchner Gold Coin cards of Washington players.
- Cards of Virginia League players from the E222, T206, T209-2, T210-2 sets.
- Type cards - mostly those cards with cool advertising.
- A back run of Hugh Jennings cards with the orange background (because my favorite color is orange).
