I'm kind of done with cards. . . .
Just seems so much more satisfying at this point to own an amazing piece of memorabilia or a great photo.
A rare Negro league photo or cap. A cabinet photo from over 100 years ago.
An amazing signed contract. Some genuine rarity from the Ruth - Gehrig barnstorming days. A real picture postcard of Cobb or Mathewson. A great scorecard from an important game. An old jersey. Even a nice piece of baseball related art.
Realize there will probably never been the liquid market for such things like what cards have. But for someone who just loves baseball so much these things just seem to pack a satisfying punch that I don't get anymore from putting cards in a plastic holder in my safe or safe deposit box.
