One of my friends asked me why I collected, and I gave him sort of a similar rundown, using the cards and design to reflect US history. Of course, I did it with almost all commons. In the end he understood, not to the point of wanting to also collect, but he got why.

There are so, so, so many parallels between US and Baseball history - it is so cool. Thanks for the kind words!

I'm sorry for your loss - I know that is what you say when something happens to someone shortly after, but I totally understand and feel the hurt / pain, even if it has been a while. Great job sharing your collecting with the kiddos!

Thanks! In my book Confessions of a Baseball Card Addict, I detailed how I spent $107,868 on my collection ... and ultimately turned a profit ... so ... yes, the Canseco collection was worth that much

My question would be: could you finance all
Of that by selling a bunch of Canseco’s?

Did you own one of his homes from 1992 by any chance ? 🤪

LOL! Yes, it was all inside of what I sold the Cansecos for and had quite a bit left over
