What Draws You to the Set(s) or Player(s) you collect?
Im sure theres bound to be as many reasons as there are sets and players, so I was curious to see what first made you decide to collect the set(s) and/or player(s) you collect? For me, as a kid, tobacco cards were something only "advanced" older collectors could afford. That, and the fact that, at that time, I had no idea who those players on the cards were. Strangely enough, now thats what draws me to them. I have learned to enjoy the history of the game that these cards depict, as well as a newfound respect for these relative "unknown" players that paved the way for today's "prima donna" millionaires, who wouldnt know what to do if they had to go out and get a "real job" in the off season. Oops...soapbox moment. Sorry!
