Long time a reader---
---but an occasional poster, more often on the Memorabilia, PostWar & NonSport side.
Fred Young--69 yrs old & retired--Married w/ 1 lovely 19 yr old daughter.
The bulk of my collection is my '50s baseball, football & Nonsport cards which my mother, bless her heart, never threw out!
Been selling on EBay since 2001 to pare down the collection, but I seem to have much more now than when I started---I guess I should quit buying collections!
Grew up in WNY State in the '40s & '50s a diehard Yankee & Mantle fan---Now in RI since 1980 & a diehard Red Sox fan! (But The Mick was & is my All-Time favorite!)
Saw my 1st game at Ebbetts Field in 1951 and still have the ticket stub. In addition to cards I have autographs, old Sport magazines, newspaper clippings in a scrapbook from the '50s and even my old '45s.
To justify posting on this Forum I did at one time own 17 OJ's, which I wish now I hadn't sold! I still read just about every post on this Forum & marvel at the wealth of info & knowledge I have gained!
Glad to be a Member of Net54!
