The "Monsters"

I currently don't have much old, vintage material.  I was listening to the Confessions of a Baseball Card Addict Podcast by Tan Man Baseball Fan.  Specifically I was listening to his May 29, 2022 episode, "You don't have to have big $$$ to enjoy this hobby!"  and his June 5, 2022 episode, "1914 Cracker Jack fetches $100,000".  In these episodes, he discusses how there are many ways to collect, as well as the increasing value of some of the vintage cards.  I decided that I'd like to try to find something Pre-WWI that is unique and (relatively speaking) affordable. 

So, I've decided that I think I'm going to try to collect the 1912 T202 Hassan Triple Folders cards that have Cubs players on them.  Why that specific group?  Well, I'm a lifelong Cubs fan and this was the era of "Tinker to Evers to Chance" in Cubs lore.  Specifically, I'd love to get the card pictured to the left that features all three of those players, but It'd be fun to collect all 14 cards.  I'd probably have to go SGC or PSA low grade to be able to afford it, but it'd be fun to do.  So, I think I'm going to start moving towards that goal.
