ever owned at any one time?
I'm not sure, maybe 3-400 ish?
3. Approximately how many pre-war cards/items do you currently still own?
Pretty much the same, I seldom sell any.
4. What is/are the most significant card(s)/item(s) you currently own?
(Not what you may have owned at one time.)
It's hard to say. I have a handful or T206 with more difficult backs, and a few oddities. It's hard to choose one, as there are a few maybes, but significant for different reasons.
5. What complete sets or near complete sets (say 75% or more) do you
currently own? (Again, not counting sets you used to own, and only
counting the baseball cards in multi-subject sets in determining the
percentage complete. And not including as sets any issue with only 1 or
2 listed baseball cards/items in it.)
None. I don't think I'm even close to 75% in any of them.
One of the hazards of being a not focused collector and more an opportunistic generalist.

Steve,
I'm not really a focused collector either, but if you saw my set list you can see what trouble it has gotten me into. LOL Great collection, keep it up.
