If you follow trimmed cards in auctions, you will see a wide variety of selling prices. If it's a lousy trimmed job, and the borders are missing, it very well might sell for less than a card that's...

I'm curious where he lands on the list of all-time pitchers? He's the best of his generation. I just read an article by some knucklehead stats expert who claims he's in the Top 20, but he had Phil...

Congratulations! I really like the Kahn's cards, and I've been trying to find as many different as possible of both Frank Robinson and Vada Pinson. I was lucky enough to pick up the '56 Frank...

I've long admired the excellent artwork Bowman did on their 1950-52 cards. When someone got traded, they just painted a new cap and uniform. Topps couldn't achieve this level of artistic quality...

I don't think they really had a fire sale, but more of a reshuffling of talent. They dumped Snell and Soto, but added Cease and Arraez. The blossoming of Merrill was like winning the lottery, and...

I spent the summer of 1975 on a lake in Upper Michigan, and all the corner store had available were minis. I've always liked them, and I think the 1975 box is one of the better designs. I believe the...

I picked up this piece not for the presence of Tom Alston, but Charlie Peete — an even more elusive Cardinal from that era who also had a tragic story.

That's very interesting John. I had never even heard of baseball "plaks." By chance, this football box with a "plaks" ad on it arrived today.

I'm a bargain hunter, and one of the things I look for are boxes missing tops, and tops missing boxes. You can often pick them up cheap. It's much easier to find the bottoms than the tops. If I can...

It's pretty grim in Orange County, but I was pleasantly surprised by what I found at Past Times Collectibles (305 N Harbor Blvd #120, Fullerton). It reminded my of an old-time card shop, and even had...

Congratulations! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and as far as I'm concerned, the 1972 set ranks among Topps' finest. I collected these in real time as an 11-year-old — and I'm still collecting...

The first time I saw Willie play in person, it was at a spring training game in Palm Springs, CA. He would have played here many times, which might explain the road jersey.
