Wow!

My 2024 goals are to upgrade a few in my favorite all time set (53 topps). All ungraded, like I like them, but a few have creases or back damage.

I would also love to get a well centered 52 topps Reese that I can add to my 52 display. The condition I am looking for is likely a PSA2-3 type of card but prefer ungraded or I can crack it out.

I’m really gonna focus less on trying to get huge stuff and stressing only monster cards. I fell into that trap a bit. I’m gonna add pre war high eye appeal lower grade HOFers from some random more tough to find sets and focus on cool poses that really appeal to me. After all that’s what collecting is about. What you love and like!

Trying to finish my e90-1 set is top priority. Then maybe dipping my toe into the T207 waters.

A famous Irish band made it big by singing, "Nothing changes on New Year's Day," so I'll just continue doing what I always do, scratching and clawing to find great Topps era cards at bargain prices. But I also hope to keep digging through my binders, boxes, and toploaders to 'Flip Mine' for semi-precious cardboard gems to be sent off for grading, while filming videos of these efforts as a source of low-brow entertainment.

Consolidate and upgrade - 33 Goudey Gehrig is one of the goals

- 1910s "Baseball Lovers" postcards
- N48/N508 Dixie Cigarettes/Virginia Brights/Sub Rosa cards
I'll say I made great progress in the above goals. But then about 6 months ago, I also discovered Japanese menko cards. So my new goal seems to be heading towards helping catalogue and organize more uncatalogued Japanese baseball cards to assist creating a broader and more complete guide.

First and foremost, replace my T206 Steve Evans that I sold last week for a ridiculous amount of money and broke up my T206 set. I'm assuming in July they should be back to a $40 common. Hopefully...
