Default Money is no object - What sets do you collect?

Hey guys,

I was thinking today about what sets I would actively pursue if money was no object and thought it would be cool to see what others would choose. Not favorite players or team collections, but just what sets would you work on?

For me, I came up with a few off the top of my head today.

1. n690 - Kalamazoo Bats - I like the size of the cards and the images, also there are plenty of cool horizontal and two player pose cards in this set.
2. m131 - Baltimore New Newsboys - Have always been drawn to these as they are basically the same set as e94 but all blue and more rare.
3. e98 - All four colors of each card
4. n175 - Gypsy Queens - Another set that I have always been drawn to but have never been able to chase.

I'm sure there are many more, but I just thought of these four right away.

So what would you work on and why?

The T210 set and anything else would be a very distant second. For now I have focused on the Ft Worth team set.

L-1 leathers. What a great display that would be.

N28 Allen and Ginter
T206
T200 Fatima
E91
Old Judge
T202
M101

Frankly, most of the things that I'm interested in collecting now, but with actual velocity in acquisition. I would also love to try to assemble a full back run in some of the rarer backs (Sovereign and Tolstoi being the favorites).

Money is no object-- buy them all! Then you don't have to pick!

Hard not to love T206 or OJs.
