A Little Queen

 Another day, another dabble through a different set with cards from the BASEball lot, this time 2019 Topps Gypsy Queen.


Not many cards from the set to share - 15 of the 300 cards, but I do get a Stroman to show for it. There have been a few designs over the years that I have liked but typically they have not been my taste to enjoy. 2019 is not one I enjoy and haven't been collecting.

The lack of stats on the back can be hard to overcome, and I just don't like the front design enough.

What drives you to collect a set? As has been obvious, design is a big one for me - if I don't enjoy it enough, I won't want more than just my Jays from the set. Whether flagship or otherwise, I have to like the design. I will make exceptions if a lot of the set falls in my lap as I like the completions aspect. Do you collect a certain  set each year, even if you don't like the design? If so, which? Why?
