Interesting read

[Vintagecatcher]

I just stumbled upon this article regarding early hobby publications:

http://www.sportscollectorsdigest.co...t-sports-cards

What I found quite interesting was this part of the article:

"Following Baseball Collector, along came another vintage publication named Old Cardboard, “Your Information Source for Vintage Baseball Cards,” with its inaugural issue in the fall of 2004, ending its 22-issue run in the spring of 2010. The editor was Lyman Hardeman. Several of the same writers that were in VCBC, such as Mark Macrae, John Esch and George Vrechek wrote for Old Cardboard."

I'm sure a writer for SCD would have no reason to print this incorrect information since the last I knew Old Cardboard was still alive and well.

I'm sure the nice folks at Old Cardboard can relate to the words of Mark Twain, "Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated."

Interesting read nonetheless.
