Nice cards Matt. I especially like the Ferrell--I owned one once but sold it not all that long ago. Twice I started that set and twice I punted. I think I have only one common left--Sam Leslie.
You will of course eventually succumb to the high numbers, blue backs and all.

Always loved Diamond Stars the backgrounds have a real 1930's feel. My focus for many years was anything that had a R300 designation. Recently I sold my collection and one of my favorite items was this sheet of Diamond star backs. Based on this example there are a number of short prints in the set. Aside from the sheet sold at the Copeland sale at Sotheby's it is the only Diamond Star uncut I have seen. I have seen multiple complete sheets from every Goudey set except 1941. just like you I spent a number of years following DS's on ebay and I agree with others who say be patient and wait for the high numbers come around at a price you are comfortable with. The Dickey high number was the tough one for me. I also found near high numbers 85-96 to be scarce. Good luck you can never go wrong collecting things you like.
