How to know when you have too much of one player

[Droubaysports]

or is there such a thing?

HOLY!! 31 post cards! !!...There is not such a thing as too much when it comes to collecting baseball memorabilia .. keep it up!

I've always tried to get as many different as possible. But that's just me. You want 100 signed postcards ? A 5k box full of 91 donruss Mike Morgan's ? That's cool. It's your collection, collect what/how/who you want in whatever way makes YOU happy.

Edit: Reflecting upon my post.......collecting 5,000 91 Donruss Mike Morgans would actually be quite an accomplishment. Completely valueless monetarily wise, but would be an amazing feat.

It's easy to do, but I prefer different items. I would have no problem obtaining 20+ different Brooks Robinson signed cards covering his career, but 20+ HOF plaques don't appeal to me (unless they were a super steal).

Sewell, Kell, Feller, Doerr, Slaughter, MacPhail, etc All are easy sigs and cheap. Getting dozens would not set you back as much as it would cost to add say one Pujols or Ichiro!!

I have well over 1000 Garvey autographed items, possible 2000+. Not quite as impressive as a HOFer, but still a whole lotta Garv.

There is NO way to tell, and no there isn't such a thing.

Mopar.. Sewell is just the extreme. for Mize I have some unique items and with Bob Cousy I have soem 1 of a kind vintage signed pieces. I prefer the artvue to the yellows and pick up those when I can as well
