I am pretty good about focusing...but I also think it is my collection and I should build it in the way that pleases me and if a stray Dick Bancroft that does not fit into my collecting interests crosses my way and I find it appealing, I go for it.

I stray here and there when collecting my HOFer subsets. While I was trying to build my 1938 Goudey HOFer subset I went ahead and bought two dream hockey cards a 1966 Topps Bobby Orr and a 1958 Topps Bobby Hull. I just could not resist the auctions.

My focus is "straying." When I see something I like and think it's an ok price, I don't mind adding it to my collection.

My problem is every time I collect a couple of cards as types or just because I really like their looks, I find myself driven to complete the set. That is why I never ventured in to the E100, E107 or T211 sets

As the prices escalate beyond my limits on T206 errors & rare backs I have started to look at other error types.

Scrap or just MC, neat either way?
