For 2022 my goal was to acquire at least 24 T206's to average 2 per/month. I am right at that goal and hoping to pick up 1 or 2 at the Nashville card show this weekend. I also had goals of focusing more on HOF cards including picking up at least one Mantle and making progress on my '55T and '65T sets which are nearing completion. I did get a 60s Post cereal Mantle, a few 50s-60s HOFer cards I've wanted, made an awesome buy on a Mike Schmidt RC ($2.50!), got a George Brett RC, and a few 65's this year, but didn't make a dent to the '55 set.
For 2023... I was going to up my goal to 36 T206's, but I think I had better stick to 24 for the year. Getting 2 per month is still a decent goal given prices and my desire to collect raw cards with off backs if at all possible. Of those 24 I would like to pick up 3-4 HOFers and increase my off backs particularly polar bears, sovereigns, and old mills. Other 2023 goals include getting another Mantle or two, getting Ozzie Smith and Rickey Henderson RCs, and focusing on picking up more 50s-70s HOFer cards - particularly Banks, Brock, Mays, Musial, Williams, Aaron, Clemente. Maybe I will try to get another prewar HOFer card ('33 Goudey or '34-36 Batter Up or something?) too.

The only cards I'm looking to buy next year is the E91 Rube Waddell and Cracker Jack Sam Crawford. My dad had to sell his cards years ago to pay bills and Ive felt guilty for it since. I want to make sure he at least has those 2.
As for me I might finish my 1975 Topps Set and pick up some cheap 90s inserts of my childhood favorites. Last edited by CancerForCure; 12-29-2022 at 11:01 AM. |

I'd really like to find the Gehrig Salutation Exhibit to finish my set and the 1935 Wheaties Series 1 Dean brothers card, also to finish a set. And a Patty Berg in Action to finish the '52 Wheaties set. I'll also be working toward a master set of '62 Post football - need some CC13's and Top3's.

Started 2022 with nothing, and now settled on a few collections that should keep me occupied on ebay looking for obscurities. So 2023 will be to focus on making a dent on these:
- Federal League material - Baseball-themed Victorian trade cards - 1910s "Baseball Lovers" postcards - N48/N508 Dixie Cigarettes/Virginia Brights/Sub Rosa cards
