Enjoying Pre-war

I attended my first major show after 8 months of lurking here. Very much enjoyed looking at various pre-war cards. Almost scary that I now know a T-206, from a 205, from a Turkey Red. Thanks for introducing me to this demension of card collecting.

welcome to the wonderful world of vintage card collecting. It will drain your pocketbook and drive you nuts at times. But, I personally could think of no better way to spent my hard earned money and my extra time conversing them great people that also enjoy the cards and the history.

Have Fun

Welcome to the Pre-War baseball card hobby. I'm glad to hear you had such a good experience at your first major show. This is a whole new world and here's hoping you have a lot's of fun exploring it. I agree with Lee that sometimes these things will drive you nuts. When I first got into baseball cards I had all my Clemenses and Pucketts and Cansecos neatly tucked in a row. Now I spend most of my time huddled in a corner quietly laughing to myself with a fistful of Obak in one hand and N172's in the other. Good Luck and please keep us all posted on how your collecting is coming along.

Regards,
Adam
