Where you can freely browse through buy, sell and trade to examine high resolution imagery of sport's antiquities to find an item for either your nascent collection or the holy grail you have been searching decades for, all reasonably priced, often with free shipping whether you live in rural South Dakota or Timbuktu.

Where you can hang out at the water cooler, even if you're not thirsty, and engage in spirited, but friendly, repartee with other members regarding a wide variety of subjects that you or others have chosen to post.

Where you can even rebuff another member's price, opinion or seeming ignorance, provided you do so in a jocular manner and post your full given name.

And where Leon Luckey is always hiding in the shadows, rarely showing his face, thank god, to graciously administer all of the activities honestly described above.

Lifetime memberships are absolutely free of charge, but come without an ironclad guarantee of sustainability.

Net54 in a nutshelll. Frank gets fluff. However if he were to stick to the basics on his own self-description it should read: Heavy surface wear and soiling, wrinkling on backside, 90/10 off-center Top to Bottom.
