Will you be able to achieve it?

So what is your goal, and will you be able to achieve it? If not, is it due to rarity or financial issues?

Nelson, I don't see your answers to these questions. Why not?

My goals:
(1) An example of every WaJo card.
(2) An example of every Sam Rice card.
(3) A better type-card collection than Leon's.

My chances of achieving:
(1) None.
(2) Slim.
(3) None.

A NY Highlanders T-card master set. It will probably take me the rest of my life to complete but i think its attainable.

hi
I didn't answer to the question you are right.
I will try to explain correctly in english hope you will understand. When i re-start the hobby in last march my goal was to build a T206 set.

After that during the summer another project push me in the obligation to sell my partial t206 set ( arround 150 cards if my memory is good ) .
Now with my other project done, last week i started again a T206 project. But this time i go with another purchase method. I will do it more slowly with 1 or 2 cards a week in low grade and raw no graded cards. If it is possible i will try also to have many different back .

With this method i will not burn me with this long travel of the t206 set quest.

I also have in my goal to find other Lionel Carter T206 SGC graded cards.

I think my goal is realist and i think i will be able to acheive it with a lot of time and no stress and no ruch in buying cards.

Thanks to all people who share his goal in this thread !

Too funny Val. I love seeing your type cards. It's fun feeding off of each other and the other type card collectors we are friends with. It really makes collecting so much more fun (for me) when it is done with friends such as yourself. Happy collecting!!

Here is one for ya....

Hey Leon, thanks for showing me your 1921 self-developing card of WaJo, which I'd love to have in my WaJo collection. And, I suspect I will have it and more from your collection, IF (a great big if) I am able to obtain a Niagara Baking card before you do!!!
Best,
Val
