Default What do you do with Vintage Cards?

Posted By: Ben

I need to do something more creative with my nicer cards...they are all stored in boxes on my top shelf in my closet. All that great eye appeal is going to waste! I'm just worried that if they are on display they will be stolen by one of my roomates' friends (I live with 3 other college students).

Default What do you do with Vintage Cards?

Monday I was dog-sitting my girlfriend's new dog and she ate the cover off a baseball that my grandfather gave my mother when she was a child. She actually pulled it out of my coffee table, from beneath the glass, while a tennis ball sat right next to her unmolested. Another dog was in surgery this morning to have its eyeball removed after the baseball-chewing dog pulled it partially out last Friday - thus, the dog-sitting. But it really is a sweet little puppy (I say as I step around a massive puddle of pee in my carpet).

So I'm typing to keep from screaming!

I need to get a pic of my office now and post it. Very cool idea for a posting. I just need to find a digi-cam, and y'all can see what a Matty-Brainwashing people get when they walk into my office. LOL....

Cheers!

I'm glad no one complained that I posted a picture showing my "Johnson" - it's only 2 1/2 inches long and kind of wrinkled, but it still gives me a lot of pleasure and I don't mind letting others look as long as they don't touch it.

Elliot, if you want to delete this I understand

Looks nice Scott, though there's a Nike coffee cup in there.

I'm a completely messy person. This is evidenced by a conversation I had with some one on this board:

J.: "Do you have a Ralph Erickson autograph?"
D.: "I might."
J.: "If you have it, could you find it?"
D.: "Doubt it."

Scott. I can't get my photos to upload. Maybe I can send them to you and you can get them on here?
I've never been able to get this to work...this upload temp file thing is so frustrating...

My entire reception area is decorated in baseball memorabilia (mostly reproductions of old time signs). The cards basically sit in the dark in the bank vault. Too expensive, unfortunately, and too sensitive to light to leave out in the fluorescent atmosphere of my office.

All the good ones in albums, and my Harpers woodcuts in Mylar, and my Mullin Art, and more second hand Mullin art, and the 4 Sports Illustrateds, and what all, are in my son's ex stereo cabinet, with tablecloths all around it, glassed in, wooded in, or bare. EVEN THOUGH I QUIT SMOKING 8 WEEKS AGO (applause, please), I STILL keep the tablecloths over them. If someone wants to see something, I get it out of the cabinet and bring it in the living room.

I do wear the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers World Series press pin almost every day, though. Wouldn't want to get lonely...

Hey, I only smoked from 1950-2002. If I've been a little touchy lately, maybe that's why. With the nicotine patches, it's pretty easy. The only time I really want a cigarette is when I'm fighting with Bob. Not even fighting with you guys does it!

Julie-Congratulations, quitting smoking is something to be very proud of. You also saved yourself enough money to buy a few vintage cards no doubt.

Very frustrating pics! We know they are all of Matty, and that they are of great quality, but we can't see them!
