2014 Collecting Goals ?

[g_vezina_c55]

Yep Daryl my interest change in 2013. But in my 2013 goals , the Magie was a goal and i bought a Magie in 2013.

The Lajoie is also a card i always wanted so at the beggining of 2013 the Lajoie wasn't in my mind but things change during the year !

I am verry happy of my 2013 collecting year !

My goal for collecting was definitely completed in 2013, however have been relocated recently and haven't had a chance to see my cards for quite some time (what a horrible feeling)!

Anyway - 2014 goal: End up with a e104-2 Wagner and one more e104 type 3
Also - try to add to my Plank collection, in particular an E107.

I picked up all of the remaining C46s catchers in the set, a 1915 Nunamaker CJ, and a Plow Boy Tobacco Cabinet this year. Was looking to find a Johnny Kling Plow Boy Tobacco Cabinet and landed a Tom Needham one.

Looks like my focus on the upcoming year will be adding more T207 catchers. I have really enjoyed picking them up recently.

My favorite focus will continue to be adding more Chief Meyers colored silks. It's been over a year since I have added any to my collection.

First off great thread....love reading what people have for goals this upcoming year for their collections. Well last year i didn't do one. Maybe because I really didn't get involved back into the hobby until may or june. Bummer oh well here is to the 2014 year

--2014 Goals--

1. I would love to do more deals and become more involved with fellow members on here. Get to know everyone's collections and interests. I have shows in the MA area all the time so you never know what I come across. Could be something here to help someones collection.

2. Really like to obtain at least another 33 more PSA 5+ 1934 Goudey's including the 1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig #37 for my set. Currently at 15 cards in my set. That will give me a half completed set.

So i do have some work ahead of me so here's to 2014. Best of luck on everyone's goals this year.

2013 Goals:

(1) I'd like to continue to prune back my collection like I have been doing in 2012, and continue to focus on my Ruth collection. - Check

(2) I'd like to finish my Schutter Johnson set (I only need Si Johnson) - Check / Finished!

(3) and make some progress in these random sets I'm working on (W519-1/W590/Baguer). - Check, somewhat (2 additions to W519-1, 4-5 additions to W590, 2 additions to Baguer)

(4) Someday, I'd like to pick up a CJ Cobb, T206 Magie, and/or E103 Wagner, but not sure it will be 2013 since I think this will be more of a step back year. - Nope, a big 0 here, as expected.

2014 Goals:

(1) Continue to prune back collection and focus more on tough Ruth cards.

(2) Continue to make progress on small sets (W519-1, W521, W590, Baguer)
