2016 Post-War Goals

[Mark70Z]

In regards to cards I'd like to pick up a few high grade cards of Brooks. I have all of his regular issue cards, but not much of anything that is really in great condition w/nice centering.

1. Stow away a huge amount of cash to afford more high-end cards.
2. Buy more high-end cards & repeat #1 again.

[CharleyBrown]

1. To go to the 2016 National in AC
2. Pick up a 1951 Bowman Whitey Ford RC that's well centered, has no printer marks, and has nice registration
3. If things work out, pick up a 1951 Bowman Mantle that's well centered, has no printer marks, and has nice registration

Nice Robbys!

I did not see this thread, as I really only started posting here about 6 or 7 months ago. Had I did, I would have stated that I wanted to do a big overhaul of my collection and focus towards post-war. Which I was able to do!

Congrats to everyone that was able to reach a hobby goal!

Same.

I joined back in January and immediately started purchasing cards at a feverish pace.
Purchased many (in my net54 link below) as well as many, 80+, 52 Topps cards.
Didn't really have any goals, just wanted some cards that I seen but I did curb my appetite and stuck mostly to 52's during the last half of the year.

I was real happy to pick up, Spahn, Feller, Ashburn and Irvin, and I guess my goal for next year, if the CDN dollar ever recovers, is to continue on my with my pursuit of more 52's like Snider, Rizzuto, Campanella, Berra, Martin and Hodges to name a few.

Slow but sure with these goals.
1958 Hires Test cards with tabs.
1968 Topps 3D including variations.
Tough/oddball Dodger issues 1958-70's

I would love to get the 60 or so cards I need to finish my 71 Topps set as well as a Yaz, Mays and Clemente 69 deckle edge to finish that set.

[HRBAKER]

Pick up at least 2-3 more cards on my march to the set, hopefully a Banks and a Drysdale.

[Kelleys1]

Looking to add at least one of the following from my personal 10 most iconic cards.....
1953 Topps Satchel Paige
1951 Bowman Willie Mays
1968 Topps Nolan Ryan

And pick up a couple more Ted Williams PSA 5 or above for my run.

[KingFisk]

Finish my Cy Young winner and post-1950 MVP winner rookie card collections. And that is going to be it for a very long while, due to a growing family.

[tonyo]

52 Campanella
52 Wilhelm
52 Mathews

49b Snider,
49b JRobinson
49b Paige

Looking for low grade and a price I can live with (that's the hard part).
Those are the cards I need to complete my 49 thru 79 topps/bowman regular issue hofer run.


No other post war goals, and trying not to start any new collecting projects in 2016!
