leonActually the E271 is just one I had never picked up. I don't even consider it in the top 10 of most difficult to obtain although it's certainly not common. I had just never ponied up for one. There are a few incidental cards I haven't picked up but since my last 2 (difficult ones) are going to be so tough I know I have time. Who said type collecting isn't collecting the way it was meant to be? I think Burdick himself might have leaned that way and I know a few other icons (Jim Beckett) and some others that were more type collectors than set collectors. With that being said I am NOT saying the hobby hasn't been built around sets because I know it has. As stated many times previously I get bored with things very quickly so the breadth, and diversity, of type collecting is what has fueled me so far...best regards
