March Contest Part 2

I know you're super excited to win something so here is part two of the March Contest.

This is going to be super easy.

Leave a comment with your collection focus; team, player, set, etc. For example: Rangers, Catchers, Joe Mauer.

Whatever floats your collecting boat. You can include as little or as much as you want, but I want a database of your collecting goals after this is over because I'm about to do some major sorting and need to know who to contact when I'm done. If you collect football, basketball or hockey teams or players, don't forget to include those in your comment.

    I'm pretty much a vintage collector when it comes to sports. However, I'm a Steelers guy when it comes to football.

    Hmmm How much time do you got? OK seriously right now my main focus besides the Washington Teams (and B'more) is trying to play 40year plus catchup with vintage 60s and 70s from 1975 on back.

    Its all about the Vintage.
