With things a bit slow on EBAY, I thought this might be a fun topic. I'm sure each of us has a routine of doing key word searches on EBAY to find our vintage items. As many of you are aware, I collect type cards of 1905-1915 era catchers including Roger Bresnahan, George Gibson, Johnny Kling, Red Kleinow, Chief Meyers, Ira Thomas, and Gabby Street.

I often narrow the search for Chief Meyers by typing his last name. In fact, I often use the correct spelling (Meyers), as well as the misspelled version (Myers.) Needless to say, I'm a little tired of wading through all of the Mike Myers' Austin Powers items.

Does anyone else experience this type of irritation?
