71 cards including over 40 E126s, Sport Kings, E121s and various hockey cards from the 1920s.
No iPod. Reading Net54 posts. I'm not much for reading despite previously being a teaching assistant for a year in the English Department at West Virginia University.

I love books about those old punk bands-it was like they were living on the last frontier they way they had to gig and tour. I didn't get into punk until my metal phase passed and I missed the first wave or two. There's still a dozen or so bands I really like from the punk days, many of which are still around.

1) Small group of pre-war cards I'm trying to decide whether to send to PSA or sell raw.
2) Kind of into the Beatles at the moment. 3) I usually read multiple books at once. Currently in the john - Legacy of Ashes, a History of the CIA by Tim Weiner; on the nightstand A History of God by Karen Armstrong; and in my backpack is Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.

I agree. It's largely white suburban juvenile delinquent music. In fact, much of Black Flag's early music lyrics are about parties and going to the liquor store. A Black Flag lyric is "Does anyone have the key to the liquor cabinet?" .... Discharge is overtly political, with their songs being protest songs, but Black Flag is social and personal-- around your neighborhood type stuff.

Desk: About 35 non-Red Sox M116's that I need to sell one of these days and a Nice 38 Goudey Jimmy Foxx that I just purchased.
Ipod: Pre 1980 Speedwagon. This includes the double live "you get what you play for" album circa 1977. Got me through a 50 mile bike ride Sunday as I started my training for the RAGBRAI since the snow has lifted here in MN. Book: Just finished "Patriot Reign" by Michael Holley for the 2nd time. Up next: "Mint Condition" once it arrives.

Most probably don't know (and many likely don't care) that one of Black Flag's founding members and original bassist is auctioning off his personal collection on eBay. Has included rare early un-issued test records, the original metal stamp used to make an BF album (like the printing press for cards) and more. He was also the co-owner of the indie label SST, so has scarce insider stuff from other bands like Husker Du, The Descendants and Sonic Youth ... The un-issued test-album for BF's 1978 second EP went for over $500, and the metal stamp I think was around $400 ... The interesting thing is as the former band member and label owner, he says how many of each item were made.

Hey! My first post on this great message board. I am so glad I found some folks like myself who go after those old pieces of cardboard. I have got along way to go with my collection, and am glad to have all of you to help guide my way.
No cards on my desk. Just an autograph pic of Don Larsen's perfect game. Listening to Buddy Holly, Lightnin Hopkins, and Townes Van Zandt today, with a twist of Ol Blue Eyes. Reading "The Road." Last edited by Vol; 03-23-2010 at 07:53 PM.
