Why do we collect??

It's all about the hunt for me.

I like everything about collecting baseball cards. I have met some (now) very good friends, have managed to flip a couple cards and make a few dollars and love the history of the game though I don't study it enough. Last but not least I like the artwork of the cards themselves. There are other things but those are some of them.... Actually, very good question. We all have our own reasons and none of them are wrong.

I will always love baseball cards and they will always hold a special place in my heart. I was born in 1980 and have memories of my dad giving me the only part of his collection he still had a little stack of 1958 And 1961 Topps on a Saturday late afternoon in early summer of 1991 we went thru and looked them up in my Beckett. I will always cherish that memory as will I of taking my paper route money and walking to the card shop with 10-15 dollars and trying to get a Frank Thomas or Ken Griffey Jr. I always loved the history of the game and that is why I will always love vintage the most.
