Leaving the cards to the kids
 
A few years ago my father gave me the only baseball card that survived his childhood, a beat up 58 Mantle. Tons of sentimental value. I thought about doing the same for my children. Now when I pick up a Mantle I photograph the kids holding it. I put the photos in special binders I made at Zazzle.com . Zazzle is cool, but a little touchy with image copyright issues. They said no photos of Mantle.


Anyone else have any corny traditions with collecting and their children??

I'm a certified addict for certain cards and have passed it on to my son with another player.

Collecting
 
I have been collecting since 1957. My kids have no interest. My wife and executor have instructions on how to get rid of all of it
