I am strictly a HOF collector from 1887-1991. I do have some few exceptions such as a 63 Rose and a 58 Maris, Frank Thomas (1990 Frank Thomas), Ken Griffey Jr. For the years 1933-1988 I mostly collect HOF rookie cards, as long as they are actually rookie cards of rookie players, meaning they would have have had 1 1/2 seasons or less played before the card was released. Unless they got sent back to the minors for while right after their first partial season (Ex. Hank Greenberg, Carlton Fisk, Robin Yount) I also exclusively collect only within main sets of cards only (Ex. Topps, Bowman, Fleer, Donruss, Upperdeck, T205, T206 (soon), Allen & Ginter, Goodwin, Goudey etc...One day I will probably get into back collecting for T206 and T205 but I will not care about ink color or stats on back or lack thereof.
