Any thoughts on what sets could be worked on within a reasonable budget that would showcase a few of the games greats, provide fodder for a few conversations, etc. I realize this is a pre-war forum, but would entertain all thoughts pre '75
Thanks guys

You said you've collected since you were a kid- take a look at what you have, and start from there. About a month ago I noticed that I had quite a few Hall of Famers from the 1934-1936 Batter-up set...so the next logical step was to pick up a few commons and I'm on my way. I already know I have a connection to them because I owned them already.
Another thought might be to go the Team Set route... If you're a big fan of a certain team, start building team sets from all the different years- a great way to learn about your teams past.
