I love baseball and sports history and collecting is the way that takes back to the times and players that I never saw but only herd of. I can learn about what baseball was like back in the day, what the uniforms, stadiums, and players looked like, the stats on the back and ads. I also agree with the members that were talking about it being a stress reliever. If I am having a bad day I can turn to the hobby and know the day has gotten better. I also to collect to enjoy!!!!
I remember back in high school in the early 2000s I would always go my local card shop and buy Beckett Vintage when the shop owner had it in stock and that was when I found the card that would change all. I saw a 1969 Topps Willie Mays sitting in the shop owners case and it was 35.00 and I thought it was the coolest card I ever saw, so I saved up as much as I could cause I wanted it. So the day came and I bought that Mays and that's when my love for Vintage Cards came about.
