My silly e98 Connie Mack motivation

[SushiX37]

I'm somewhat new to the board, even though I've been collecting pre war cards for six years now and baseball cards in general since I was a kid. Six years ago I bought my first T206 and instantly fell in love with the set. As I learned more about pre war cards, I was introduced to the E98 set, and in particular the Connie Mack card. For whatever reason I was instantly attracted to it, and have admired it ever since.

Last year, I started a small business with guy I've know for a number of years. He found the backing of a well established businessman here in town, and in March we opened our doors. In August, I bought one of the PSA Black Swamp Connie Mack reprints that were given out at the National show. (I loathe reprints in general, but I fully understand the how/why/what behind these.) It sits on my desk here at work as motivation. Someday, somehow, I'll own one. Does anyone else have silly motivation in regards to cards?
