Default Pre-War Card Games

Posted By: Brian Lindholme

Peter,
My favorite game is showing off a vintage card or two in front of a group of friends /relatives/co-workers and see how long it takes before someone asks how much I paid for it, and what I could get if I sold my entire collection.

Once they held out almost 3 minutes. Of course, I had a bigger pile of cards with me that day.

It kinda bugs me...if you show off your new car, or buy yourself a new sofa...most folks don't immediately think to ask you to provide the resale value of it.

Why aren't baseball cards given more respect among others beside us crazy folks.

"I wish I was a couch"...overheard by my new M116 Lajoie.
