    The reason I got back into collecting

    Just got it back today. My first graded card. My grandmother gave this, plus a nice bunch of others to me back in 1995. I have had them tucked away until a couple weeks ago. Perhaps I will scan the others too. Thanks for looking!

    Here are the others I got at the same time.

    20ish years out of the hobby, I ran across my Jackie Robinson Rookie, now I'm back.

    Interested in Patrick Corbin and Charlie Keller and 1887 Allen & Ginter.

    1887 Allen & Ginter 16 of 50 and counting.

    My pops always talked about having that typical shoebox full of old cards that, of course, grandma probably threw out!!

    Football: The Gronk!
    Basketball: Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippen, & Michael Jordan, 90's refractors or #rd stuff, Damon Stoudamire, Penny, etc.
    Baseball: Paul Goldschmidt & Mike Trout
    + HOFer slab bed or raw.

      My dad was always after me to sell my cards. Now my wife has taken over that role.

      Coolest thing I had handed down like that was a pair of wooden shoes that my dad's cousin in Holland made back in the 1940's.

      My kids, however, will have plenty of baseball memorabilia when I pass on!
      Favorite baseball players include: Mike Schmidt, Steve Carlton, Kirby Puckett, Pete Rose, Tyler Colvin Mark Appel
      Favorite football players include: Peyton Manning, John Elway, Daunte Culpepper, Mike Alstott, Blake Bortles, and Dri Archer
      Collecting: 2012 Topps Mini 1987 topps... non-certified autos (in person or through the mail), autographed cards with bible verses
