OBC - Old Baseball Cards (collecting club)

[Wite3]

Been a member for nearly 25 years now!!

OBC is about cards and camaraderie.

As to cards, I honestly am not sure if I am up or down card wise and frankly don't care. If I have something and you need it, I send it. I love opening my mailbox and finding OBC packages and the surprises within.

But it is more than just a trading group...I have been to OBC weddings, and had OBC guys at my wedding. Group trips, charity work, and meet ups are the best. When I first started I was 18 years old and was traveling the country. I was put up by OBCers in many different cities over the years. Heck, I was treated to pizza and beer in Scotland by an OBC member!

If you are looking for mint cards...look elsewhere. OBC is about the cards we grew up with, held, played with, traded, etc. Most of my collection hovers around g-vg+ condition and I am more than fine with that.

I encourage people to check out the website and fill out an application if you want to...

I want to thank Leon for his support over the years as well.

Haha Ralph!
Yes, first we fill you with greenies (1962), then take you to the dark side, then the white side and maybe the cream side (1960). We'll torture and confuse you with numbers of rookie cards (are they 1962 or 1963 rookies?), We'll throw colored dots in front of your eyes (1963 Checklists). We'll see if you can spell "Baker" (1957) or Luis (1961), or BRAVES (1967). Then one day, we may torture your mailman with loads of get well (what we call "the healing power of cardboard") cards. You may hear voices like Ray saying "Bob I am your fatherrr, and Brett and Aaron, I am your Grand-Fatherrrrr" (The Boones).
This is one cult I am very happy that I drank the kool-aid from and on many occasions, with!
Come back to the "card side" Ralph !
