Cool. Tobbacco cards/Goudy era?
Some beautiful pieces of art in those early cards.
I have a few T-206's and Gypsy Queen cards that I love looking at every now and then

Weightlifting, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, reading, going to breweries, and trying to get better at cooking.

I have about 70% of the portraits from the T206 set... the entire thing is just too much. I also focus on cards issued by Louisiana businesses.




LA stuff:

That's only a very small sampling. I started about 15 years ago and have traded and sold a good bit... but I still have a fairly nice sized collection. I just hope at least one of my kids gives a shite about it otherwise I'm gonna sell it all off when I'm old and spend it all before I die.

Do you get most of them at retail or tradeshows? Any good personal finds in attics, estate sales, etc?

Mostly through online communities. There are a couple of websites where people buy/sell/trade that you can find better deals than somewhere like Ebay. I haven't personally found anything worthwhile going to estate sales and such. I don't go do that kind of stuff often... but if I do end up at an estate sale or antique shop I'm always looking.

I've also bought in bulk if the price was right. I put together a partial 1953 and 1955 Topps set buying cheap bulk lots. I'm thinking of getting rid of the 53 set but it's hard to cut ties.
