Why we collect what we collect
For me, collecting is very personal and goes way beyond just collecting what I like. My collection mainly consists of:
Hank Aaron: favorite player. Growing up in ATL, he was AND is "the man". Reggie Jackson: other favorite player. Started collecting in 1974. Reggie epitomized the mid-late 70's (see 5 WS rings in 7 yrs). Topps sets: 1974-1981. Sets I collected as a child/early teen. 1965 Topps: birth year 1952 Topps: collecting low-mid grade (very slowly). Always seemed like the ultimate set. I know we all collect for different reasons. I look forward to reading other responses and reflections.
