I am 35 and collected as a kid from 1988-93. Then in 2012 Andrew Luck brought me back to collecting FB. Now with Panani taking over football I am giving up new products after 2015. Started back doing some baseball just recently and stumbled upon one of the coolest cards I have ever seen I. The 1950 Bowman Jackie Robinson. So now I'm seeking out that card and looking at other vintage and I have to say I enjoy it a lot!

Other than updating my Topps base and update sets every year for my Cubs collection, new is pretty boring to me. Prewar is so much more interesting and challenging to colllect. Takes more money also but well worth it in my opinion. I doubt if a Kris Bryant rookie will ever be as valuable as even a good common from the E121-80 set. Just my opinion.

A hearty welcome! Vintage is where the true, lasting value lives.

May your collecting journey bring you many friends,
