I have been collecting since 1976 and used to put sets together but now concentrate on Cubs I need (pre-war). My "stuff" is mostly Cubs and I really enjoy, and sometimes get frustrated, by the hunt. I remember putting the 1954 set together. I spent 8 years finishing it and the last card was some common. I had no problem finding Williams, Banks, Aaron but those commons!! However, I put in in a box and it has never been looked at again. To me the "thrill of the hunt" for Cubs I don't have and, sometimes, thanks to this site, didn't even know they existed is the most fun. The demise of card shops in my area had diminished this and I don't get to go to Nationals anymore so my hunt is basically limited to antique shops when I go and on-line sites.
