Default Re : Are you collecting by location ?

I primarily collect only Nashville, Tn. Baseball related items, but dabble a bit into the Southern Assoc/League with other area teams in the state such as Chattanooga, Memphis, and Knoxville.

I collect all existing Nashville cards including T210, T211, T213, E-254, E-270, T206-Hindu's, PC's, Photo's, Programs, Autographs, Balls, Uni's, schedules.

As far as difficulty, all of the above Type's are pretty difficult. I would say the T211's have to be the most difficult if I were to peg a group, but then you can get into certain players in all of these type sets that are impossible to find, as evidenced by POP reports, etc. (There are T210's, T211's that have no pop report in SGC or PSA, so this should give you an idea that a single card has not been graded on several of the cards that I collect).

I have been able to acquire about 1/4 of the cards in the Southeast, but I would say 1/2 of the cards have been acquired via Ebay, and the remaining 1/4 with the help of fellow Collector's, Networking, Net 54, etc.

The PC Below is of the 1908 Champion Nashville Vols. It has a interesting Stamp on it as well. I know of only 1, possibly 2 more that exist...
