First Pack of Cards: 1984 Fleer baseball. My dad would bring them home from the Marathon station. I’d write my friends names on the back intending to give them out when I saw them next.
First Set Completed by Hand: 1934 Gold Medal Foods WS set.
First T206: Large Ass Herzog
First Card To Pay >$100 For: haven’t paid over a hundred. Highest I’ve spent is $85 on a Cochran’s noteboook cover and also on a Churchman Ruth (that one ended up being a good buy). I spent $127 on a lot of 30s R cards that included a Foxx, Dean, Cochrane, Cronin, and more.
First Card To Pay >$1000 For: can’t imagine being in a position to pay >$1000 for a card. But I’d like to find out.
Most Memorable Trade: in 88 or 89 I received stack of 86, 87, and 88 Fleer basketball including 86 Jordan sticker and Bird stickers, 87 Ewing, 86 Wilkins, 86 Bird, for a bag of popcorn.
