  • You Can't Collect Everything, but Why Not Try?
    You can’t collect everything, but why not try? A look through the sports card catalogs at what’s next for the collector A fabulous 30,000-vintage baseball card collection might include Topps, Bowman, Goudey, Diamond Stars, Play Ball, M&P and other popular sets and then you might start looking for what to collect next. by George Vrechek An adage attributed to veteran collectors is that you can’t collect everything. Conversely Jefferson Burdick (1900-1963), the Father of Card Collecting, strongly encouraged collectors not to limit themselves and to remain open to expanding their interests. As a card collector it was easier for Burdick to take that position since he gave that advice around 1950 when there weren’t eight ba-jillion cards that could be collected. The signs of addiction Collecting is a progressive addiction. It may start innocently with a friend introducing us to collecting and even giving us a few freebies. We dabble into buying cards of favorite players from our youth. We progress to collecting sets from those childhood years. That feels pretty good, and soon we are tempted into expanding into earlier and later years. We get hooked on the high that comes from completing sets, and we move from baseball to football, basketball, hockey, boxing and non-sports cards. We buy from dealers in poorly lit hotel meeting rooms. Eventually we are completely addicted and start bidding furiously on inserts, test issues, regionals, tobacco cards, exhibit cards, early gum cards, variations, printing differences and upgrades to all of them. The collectors’ eyes start to glaze over as they move into progressive rounds of the addiction.
