In January, after I set my collecting goals for the
year, I went through my collection to organize things. I came to realize that I
only had 92 unique Ken Griffey Jr. cards, such a small number for a Griffey
collector. I decided that I will work to reach 200 unique Ken Griffey Jr. cards
by the end of the year and hopefully exercise some of my Griffey ghosts.
I started off the year by putting a list together of Ken
Griffey Jr. cards that I want with the parameters that I will keep the list
mainly base cards and base inserts and spend no more than $20 on an individual
card. I have since added 97 unique cards to my collection and I have another 22 Griffey cards on the way so I will have reached my 200 card point by next week.
My Wanted list still has another 123 cards (I do have to double check to ensure I am current) so I may be able to hit 250 by the end of the year. Once I have the list updated I will be adding a Trade Bait and Wanted section to my blog so I can hopefully add some cards through trade too. Next week I will post up Card #200 when it arrives.
Looking forward to it I collect him as well.
