1984 Donruss Baseball
I picked up two hand-collated sets from the recent Collector Connection auction. This afternoon, I opened one of them up and put it in a binder. The experience took me back in time. I was 12-year-old me, all over again, for a few hours.
 The set is a solid NM-MT with a few slightly higher and a few slightly lower. The only card I might upgrade is Strawberry. Everything else suits me perfectly. The cards were pack fresh, nearly 40 years after they were released. Twelve-year-old me would not have taken care of them nearly this well.  Glad to once again have a set of these in my collection. I don't plan to break it, grade it, or endlessly tinker with it. I'm going to enjoy it for the time capsule it is. After all, isn't that what collecting is all about? Having something that can take you back to treasured days gone by.
