Question for Team collectors

[David W]

Another Cardinal collector checking in.

I have attempted to get every card there is of Lou Brock up to 1981 (with a wide definition of "card").

I then made a list of the top 20 players at C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, and relief pitcher, and top 60 starting pitchers and 60 outfielders and have largely focused on that the last 5 years.

The Lou Brock items can be seen here. I now update it 3-4 times per year.

That's an interesting way to do it. I used Baseball Reference and chose the top 50 in team WAR, with a couple of exceptions (Maris, Cepeda).

Detroit Tigers collector, I like one of everything including parallels and all manufacturers. I do not collect back differences or print runs less than 25. Every winter I compile a complete Tiger cards checklist of the previous year and add it to my checklist binder. I think the binder is approaching 50 pages back and front, five columns wide and fairly detailed. Wish I could quit! ;o)

As noted by Seiklis in June I am heavy into Cleveland. Trying to find a picture of all players 1901-present: still need 3. Trying to get a type set containing Cleveland players. Now down to "hard to find" and "expensive" stuff so I spend my time on the moderns. Have about 45 different poses, colors etc from 2014 and that's probably only the tip of the iceberg.
