What is your all time favorite set??
1. 1910 T210 Old Mill. Bold red borders contrasted by b&w photos makes for a very eye catching design, minor league cards of Joe Jackson and Casey Stengel, and varying levels of scarcity depending on series. 2. 1956 Topps. Great design and loaded with stars and HOF'ers. 3. 1958 Hires... -

Starting a new PC
I tend to go after guys who's career I've followed and admired who are now retired. I recently added a Mike Cameron player collection to the fold. I've always wanted to do a PC of him, as I feel he was very underrated. Nothing crazy as far as numbers go, but solid. -
Do you think Jef Kent should be in the Hall of Fame?
