Hi All,

Joining this message board has me thinking about a lot of nice times that revolved around sports cards. It gave me the idea to start a thread to share such memories.

I was at a baseball card show, and George “Boomer” Scott was signing. My Uncles and myself were talking to him a good long while. Shy as I was in my early teens, he was so friendly that I was very talkative. I asked him if he owned a rookie card of himself, and he replied come to think of it I do not. He then handed me some money, asked me to go around the show, and see if I could not locate one for him. When I did, and came back with it, he was most excited. That is one of my fondest memories from that time.

If this is not the correct forum, please feel free to move it. I’d love to hear some of your stories.

Best,
John
