Name me a nice person in your collecting history

Posted By: Mike

When I first collected about 1981, I had a real nice neighbor that saw me sorting my card on the front porch one day. He invited me over and showed me all his cards from the 50's and 60's. I couldn't even begin to count the number of times he would "amuse the neighbor boy" by trading cards on a rainy afternoon in which he would basically give me low-grade superstars (Mantles, Mays, etc.) for a bunch of worthless 1980's junk. Looking back, I'm sure he was simply giving me the cards to see my excitement, but also knew I would appreciate them more if I had to give something in return. I hope to return the favor to some neighbor kid someday.
