Perspective

I've gained a new perspective on collecting these last few months.  One of the things I realized was my all-or-nothing approach to the hobby wasn't working.  It seems that when I was really into collecting, I put other more important things on the back burner. 

I think I've learned that I can collect little pieces of cardboard and not let it consume me.  It'll be a lot more fun this way and I can just enjoy the cards. 




Speaking of perspective, how great is this Lance Johnson card?  I'm not a fan of pictures of baseball players' butts, but this is a great picture from an angle most fans never get to experience.  Stadium Club could always be counted on for some great pictures.

    Love that Lance Johnson card. And, like Dhoff said, I thin you'll find that your new perspective will be beneficial. It has definitely worked for me.

    This card goes well with a new 'type's collection I started. I'll have to track one down.

    That is a really great shot on the Stadium Club, it truly is a shame that "candid" shots like that don't happen any more.
    I've had to work on my perspective as well, and while it wasn't easy to start with; I feel that it'll be more than worth it in the long run.
    Now to get around to organizing my base and insert/parallel binders...

    I don't normally look for cards just because they look cool, but this might have to be an exception.
