Generally speaking:
1) All Base cards
2) All insert sets to include the "every pack" run of the mill logo stickers, holograms, puzzles and magic motion cards.
3) Wrappers
4) Send-aways (where purchase of some sort of pack was necessary)
5) Contest/Advertising inserts
6) Traded/Update sets
7) Bonus cards or inserts from factory sets
8) Variations: my own delineator here is to NOT include print defects.
So, for example, I DO have: 1990 Upper Deck Jamie Weston, 1981 Fleer
Craig Nettles and 1982 Fleer John Littlefield reverse negative, but NOT
for example, 1990 Fleer Dave Martinez with the yellow "'90", 1990 Topps
Frank Thomas NNOF or the 1982 Topps blackless.
9) Box bottom cards
10) No parallels - so, I have the 1991 Donruss Sandberg Elite Signature because there's no version without a signature, but NOT the 1991 Mantle signatures because they are basically a parallel of the unsigned version.
11) Single exemplars of large-scale variations: Donruss Factory Set border changes, missing "." after "INC", 1991 Fleer jumbo pack variations.
