That way you can keep them in the house. Nobody ever steals anything from us (since Chris graduated from high school, and his friends stopped raiding my BB card collection--the part in his room only). Maybe they take one look at the living room and decide "forget it." (Actually, computers, a TV, VCR and new turntable--hey, those old records sound WONDERFUL) are visable from the door.)

i know a lot of people keep their cards in a safe deposit box, but--no way. Lew Lipset was talking about 18 years ago about the great T202 set he had in the bank, and how he was going to break it up soon. When he did, many of the cards had red mold on them. Speaking of THIN CARDBOARD, the T202 is the perfect example. From the VCBC thread, I still consider T202s cardboard--they're at least twice as thick as paper.
