A few years ago my father gave me the only baseball card that survived his childhood, a beat up 58 Mantle. Tons of sentimental value. I thought about doing the same for my children. Now when I pick up a Mantle I photograph the kids holding it. I put the photos in special binders I made at Zazzle.com . Zazzle is cool, but a little touchy with image copyright issues. They said no photos of Mantle.


Anyone else have any corny traditions with collecting and their children??

I'm a certified addict for certain cards and have passed it on to my son with another player.

I have been collecting since 1957. My kids have no interest. My wife and executor have instructions on how to get rid of all of it

Al adopts Erik... and to Erik's dismay, the will directs the trust to give the cards to net54 members who aren't Al's kids. :P

Arrrrgggghhhh!!!
