Just as several members have already admitted, I am currently blurry.

I have some of all four going on right now. I chose set completion as that is my main focus at the moment.

I suppose I did not phrase my question specifically enough what I really meant was which project that you are working on are you most passionate about hoping to add to or complete!!

Pete, that changes my answer. I am focusing currently on both player acquisitions and back runs, the latter of which is mostly composed of poses of players I am collecting (the former) However, I am more passionate about the back than the player part (for example, I would rather have an e105 Wagner throwing over some other similarly-valued Wagner, because I need the back), but I voted for player acquisition bc a nice Cobb or Jackson comes up far more often than a t206 Evers yellow sky Drum.

Other- nothing particular.
More of a High-End/white-whale/centerpiece maybe prewar. or could be just a upgrade of a card.

In the process of selling many sets and partial sets. Enjoy bouncing around too much. So, no focus at all.

I put b, but e might be more applicable. I am only collecting specific players, but also only looking for specific cards, not just any card of those players. I have a very specific want list that I am working on.

Specific player in a non same player way
RC's for no-no pitchers from 1900 on, with the accompanying next day newspaper article.

Other . . .
Primarily a team collector (quite a few forum members collect this way). My one rule breaker is N333 Newsboys in which I'm interested in any/all teams.
