IDEA: collect just one baseball card from every set in existence
There are so many different baseball card sets, it's interesting to see the different designs from all the years. The cards from the 80s are soooo 80s design (check out the 87 fleer design pictured above). So are the 90s cards.
It would be nice to have a collection that has one card from every set. My brother and I loosely do that as we collect players from different eras. I've done Shawon Dunston, Mark Grace, and Geoff Jenkins. My brother has a monster Ryne Sandberg collection.
But here's a cool idea. It would be interesting to have just one binder, with just one card from every set. It doesn't matter if it's the same player. Just the simplicity of one card from every set. Maybe the one thread would be that they are all cubs players--where possible.
