Hi Adam - Right now I am really interested in cigarette and candy cards from the turn of the century. I have some 1909 Ogden's commons, a few commons from other sets like Ardath - and an E79 Ketchel as well as a T220 Gans

In terms of fighters/specific sets - I think right now I am really just focused on cards that appeal to me - colour, design etc. I'm not a huge fan like everyone else of 48 Leaf, but eventually I'd like to grab some of the main boxers in that set. I really like 51 Ringside, but I'm starting with pre-war for now.

That said, I do find myself doing searches specifically for Stanley Ketchel as well as the same guys most of us do - Langford, Johnson, Jackson, Gans, Dempsey, Sullivan...I've just been priced out recently for a lot of them.
