New member introduction

[67_Palmer]

I've been lurking and posting here for a few months, so I figured I should introduce myself. I'm 42 and have been collecting vintage cards off and on since the early 80's.

When I was 11 or 12, I walked into my first card shop, House of Cards in Wheaton, MD. The store has changed locations a few time, but is still up and running. I just recently learned it has become Huggins & Scott auction house. Since walking in that store all those years ago and seeing all those beautiful cards I've been hooked.

I primarily collect post war, 52' to 75', though there isn't a card printed from the earliest post war issues all the way up to 83' Topps that I wouldn't love to own. My love for vintage cards far out weigh my available time and recourses.

I'm also a huge Oriole fan and religiously watch or listen to 162 games a year.

I love looking at my collection, but a close second is looking at other collections, so thanks for sharing all the great cards and collectibles on this site.
