I wanted to go ahead and start a new thread for 2013. I think some people got confused with the other thread by posting their 2013 goals, but that thread was for 2012.
I have 3 collecting goals - finish '54, '55 and '56 Topps sets. Here is what I lack:
1954 Topps Baseball:
128 Hank Aaron RC
1955 Topps Baseball:
2 Ted Williams
47 Hank Aaron
123 Sandy Koufax RC
164 Roberto Clemente RC
194 Willie Mays
210 Duke Snider
1956 Topps Baseball:
135 Mickey Mantle

I think this year needs to be a year of focus for me. Once the focus is figured out, sort through everything for a big sell off to help finance the focus.
On a positive note, I did win a white whale (not received yet) recently, that I have been chasing for a couple of years. It would certainly land in the focus category.

I want to try and get to 100% of the 58 Topps set if possible. That is if I can convince SGC to remove the Card #433b Poncho Herrera card. Just cant see paying that much for that card.

I just checked and its not included in the PSA basic set, not that SGC should always follow them but imo now way should an error be included in a basic set. Call earl or michael, I do know they have issues with the registry and I am not sure they can delete a card from an established set, I know adding them is a nightmare.

I will continue working on my 1960 Topps Baseball. I probably won't complete it this year but hope to make progress.

In 2012, December has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Sundays. This apparently happens once every 823 years!
