What was your path to what you currently collect?

[rainier2004]

I was curious what led people what what they currently collect.

My story goes as kid in the 80's I collected my favorite players and my Dads heros collecting some 60s and a few 50s topps. Adulthood let me start to buy more expensive cards and about 3 years started my obsession with older cards moving from a 48 bowman set to a 34 goudey set to my work in progress Cracker Jack set and now am trying for n28s and a couple other sets...and thats where Im at.

Im still a novice to realizing all those unique and far scarcer set coming across this board 6 months ago and wonder what led you all to e90s, 1895 mayos, w-this and e-that cards. Is there a progression that vintage collectors go thru? I lost interest in the 60s along time ago, the 50s faded 3-4 yrs ago and the 40s are starting to go but not missing a bunch there....ILOVE my Cracker Jacks though...


Happy holidays and drive safe.
