T205 set

I would definitely pursue the set - it's fun and it's pretty easy to find just about every card. If you start chasing backs and variations, it will be much harder, so I just stuck to the basic 208 card set. The bios on the back make it a great set to get a feel for the game during that time period. There's a couple of tough cards that don't show up as often as the price guides indicate, at least in my opinion. The Wagner card (not Honus) sticks out in my mind as one that was tough to find - I'm sure I could think of some more, but in general, they are all accessible if you stay with the basic 208. It took me twenty years, but that was through college, marriage, babies, etc period of my life. When I got serious again about 17 years after my few, it only took about three years and was constrained by a military paycheck, not the difficulty of finding them. Good Luck!!
