Find cool stuff that piques your interest as a fan, use it to learn more about some obscure baseball corner of the universe . . . . .don't get any better than that.

Solid advice, Steve, I'm going to try this

Figure out what my priorities are.....all of these partial sets I have and am building are driving me crazy.

Just to enjoy the hobby, because sometimes you just gotta say WTF

This past year I picked up more catcher B18s, T210s, E254 & E270 Colgan Chips, catcher S74s, catcher position pins, and catcher rppcs, and would like to do the same in 2022.

I couldn't find my goals for 2021, but they likely were pretty close to my goals in 2020 and will be the same in 2022 (except #1).

1) Pick up an E93 Cobb - Yes, finally, completed the E93 set
2) Add another E92 red croft, menagerie, or prizefighter - Didn't even see one up for sale
3) Add 2 more cards to the E92 Nadja Set - Added 1, Kleinow. Only other card I saw offered that I needed was a Bridwell but lost out on it and refuse to buy the one on Ebay.
4) Add another back to my E/T Young backrun (preferable a T216) - Added E92 Dockman
5) Finish my Davis backrun (need cocoa and maybe black candy) - nope, didn't see either offered for sale
6) Add another Wagner, Cobb, and maybe Ruth - Partial - Added M110 Cobb, but no Ruth or Wagner. Also added a few other key cards (E95 Mathewson, E92 Croft Candy Mathewson, Lincoln Pub Plank)

For 2022 I would also like to add another T222 Short-print, finish my W554 set, and pick another significant HOFer for the PC796/novelty cutlery set.

Same general goal for me - add to my Providence T206 team set. Would love to get the final Cycle that I need (Lavender). My spending for the year might depend on what's available in the next two installments of the David Hall T206 Collection auctions in the spring

Not much traction on that set lately, so I may look for another set to work on.

Great goals by all. For 2022 I want to continue to consolidate my collection and add more Ruth’s, Cobb’s and a few t206 rare backs.

[Jstottlemire1]

I want to slowly but surely add Ruth’s. Particularly 1922 e121 series of 120 with bird, then his Goudey 149 and 181. Dreaming big.
