In going through the September, 1971, issue of Playboy, looking for football phiotos in their annual college Pigskin Preview, I came across -- uh, maybe I should say, I found, an interesting article about collecting/investing. While baseball cards were mentioned -- exactly that, the two words "baseball cards" -- I found the lengthy article interesting and was struck by how accurate the advice remains nearly 30 years later.

Bob,
Thanks for making it easier to find by posting the article, I could never seem to find it :D
I tried to tell my wife I "only get it for the articles", but she doesn't buy it.

It took you 39 years but you finally made it to the articles, must be some spread!

The net55 forum is the one for dinosaur dung. I went there once by accident. Those guys are weird!

Thanks Ron, but I'm going to stick to the cards ;)
I wonder how dinosaur dung collectors display their pieces? Maybe in a glass case? Imagine explaining to the wife that this is not only fun, but also a great investment :D
I won't even go into the grading...........
