More Dollars, Less Sense

I'm sure everybody has a set that they'd love to complete, but realize that the cost and complications will prevent it. Seeing as the sets of my youth fall into the 80s, it wouldn't be too much of a challenge for me. So, I'll lean towards to a more modern set, and pick 2010 Pinnacle's City Lights insert set.

All the joy of 1993 Leaf, but with the city image on the front of the card. Usually.
And a factoid on the back that has nothing to do with the player, but the city.
At least if I do decide to go for it, at least I've got the biggest name in the set, if not the scarcest part of the print run.
And here's your Pittsburgh factoid.

If my TCDB checklist can be believed, I've got 15 of the 100 cards.

At least that can be considered progress. Somehow.

  2. Great looking set. I picked up the Thornton for my Sharks PC. Best of luck with this set build.
