As I’ve grown as a collector, I’ve learned that setting goals is a good way to maintain focus, which ultimately helps you build a better collection.

With that in mind, have you set goals for 2012 and written them down? What are they?

That's sort of my goal as well Greg.  I want to sell most of my collection.

- To upgrade our website, making it more user friendly (ETA about 3 weeks til completion)

- To help more charities (We have been working on a selling platform for 3 years now.  Hopefully this year it will finally be completed.  I do believe a man isn't a man unless he helps make this place better than he found it)

- To do more paid private signings.

- To get that darn Bob Dylan to sign.  (On my list every year)

- To do my part to help educate and entertain my fellow collectors, dealers, and lookie-loos who can't help but be attracted to this great hobby/business.

What a great mail day...just got in these 3 today...2 from auction and the Turley was signed in person for me by my good pal Terrier who attended a local show in New Jesrey....damn I love these...the pictures do NO justice on how cherry these 3 really are...I think this thread really pushed me to try to complete this set as well...thanks Zipper...LOL....LOVE THESE !!!!!!

Awesome. Stay focused and keep it going!

I wonder what it would take to get Dylan for a private signing? 100 pieces or so shouldn't be too outrageous. I would definitely be lined up for that.

NOT EXACTLY PART OF MY GOAL BUT I AM STARTING TO COLLECT 1958 TOPPS CARDS OF HOF PLAYERS...JUST GOT THIS IN TTM TODAY FOR 10 BUCKS

AND PART OF MY 2012 GOAL DARRELL JOHNSON 1958 TOPPS CARD SIGNED FOR MY YANKEE SET

Most of my autograph collecting involves going to comic book conventions, expos, public sigings, car shows, and team fanfests every year.  So far I've gotten autographs from Charger cheerleaders at the San Diego International Auto Show, comic books signed by artist Herb Trimpe at the California Comic Con, autographs from the National & Softball Expo, and autographs from Padres Fanfest.  Soon, I will be attending WonderCon, Long Beach Comic Book Expo, San Diego Comic Con (I'm praying that I go!), Chargers Fanfest, and the Long Beach Comic & Horror Con.
