Yes, Bryan, this is EXACTLY how it all starts!! About 25 years ago, I started collecting OJs of Washington players (+ Griffith, because of his later association with Washington). At first, I was content with 1 card of each player; then it became 1 card of each pose of each player; then it became each variation of each pose of each player, before I came to my senses and realized that my collecting budget wouldn't accommodate this! But, hey, this is a part of what makes collecting so much fun, right? The cards below are not recent pickups - I'm merely showing them to whet Bryan's OJ-collecting appetite!
