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.

Other: I no longer collect. I wonder how many are like me who enjoy reading what's going on in the hobby but no longer buys cards for a personal collection.

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.
