AnonymousI started collecting when my brother heard of the set called "t-206" at the time i thought, what set is that?!?!(i was 17 at the time)so i went on ebay and saw allllll these awesome looking old cards. i started bidding on some, i saved 180 bucks from my job. i won rube waddell portrait, addie joss E93,Hugh duffy(tolstoi back), 2 Bresnahan's, Waddell pitching, Bender swinging, and about 30 other cards. Now i;m 21 and my collection is just tobacco and caramel cards. When i got these cards i wanted to research the players and everything. i learned alot in that time! and watching Ken Burns baseball
I live in canada (near toronto) and its soooo hard to get tobacco cards at shows. But just recently i found a creaseless Joe Tinker for $40 bucks. the guy didnt even know who he was,, he only delt in new cards. so i think its a vary unique type of collecting!!!! I'm have sent it out for grading, and i think it will be about a 4 to 6! but my love for old cards, will never change!!!!
