I'm pretty happy with the results so far.

yeah those cards are the waterside properties....1951 mantle etc.... Peter Speith seems to be looking for all the same cards....1933 ruth is on the water...a 1935 goudey has a view of the water but maybe a block away...

Yea I've decided that's what interests me the most, just going for a few big cards. Set building really isn't for me, although I probably should have started with something cheaper than 52 Topps. Perhaps down the road I'll try to put a set together again.

The next one I pick up could be a while after this one, but I've got my eye on a few.

Exact!! Thats kinda what i been doing. I want some of my childhood players, but also want some big cards i dream to have. I would love a Wag or Joe Jackson, but the hunt is there and narrowed my search for what i want most. And Yes the Goudey Ruths is on my list as well, but hopefully when the prices fall.
