Hi, Jesse! Good to finally know your name. I'm Bill.
Let's see. I'm a just-turned 42 year old living outside of Dallas, Texas. I was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and grew up in the 'burbs of Waukesha, WI.
As to when I started collecting, I got hooked on Topps at a very early age. As a little kid, I'd sit in my friend Carl's bedroom (RIP, Carl), and we'd look at the 1979 Topps Milwaukee Brewers. I got hooked on the hobby, and my love of baseball just kicked into high gear. The Brewers were really good then, mind you, so it was easy being a mini cheesehead cheering for Bambi's Bombers, and Harvery's Wallbangers. I kept on collecting until about 1991 or 1992, and I just got sick of the overproduced crap that saturated the hobby. Then, about three years ago or so, I decided to start collecting again. I started out with modern cards, and in the last year plus, I've begun getting into pre-war and vintage. So, that's where I sit now.
