We just recently had a thread where everybody introduced themselves. Maybe someone remembers when it was and can find it for you.

Default Hello....

Great thread and good luck with your goals try some T206 on for size...

I am 42....started when I was a kid.....got out of it in my late teens....returned in the late 20's and collected the newer shiny bowman chrome ect....in '98, my friend Johnny D got me into T206....it was all over!!

I started with hofers.....then name at top miscuts....then small freaks/misprints in '99.....after that....I went hard core to the big freak/miscuts and printers scrap

All I dream about are T206 rarities and scraps BB's ect

Peace

Johnny V

Cool thread. I'm 37, married, National Sales for Blue Cross Blue Shield. Started collecting when I was younger, quit when I went to college, played baseball in college, hit a HR off a future HOF(?), hit a HR in my last college AB, came within one game of going to the 64 team tourney (twice), cried like a baby (twice). I now play ultra-competitive softball and won my first World Series this year in Oct. in the elite division. I'm also an avid poker player at my local casino and a semi-professional gambler (I only lost 3x during the entire baseball season, and have yet to have a losing week in college/pro football this year since Labor Day (I'm sure I completely just mushed myself!) and have been banned by 2 bookies: a badge of honor to me, haha).

Started collecting again in about 2003 while looking thru old cards that I had and came across a George Mullen portrait that I bought when I was 12. I now collect T206s, T206 autographs, T206 player bats (i have 8: Dolly Stark, Roy Brashear, Pat Moran, Harry Davis, Fred Snodgrass, George Stone, Gavy Cravath, Art Fletcher), and old stadium seats (i have 3: Forbes Field, Shibe Park, Ebbets Field). I need about 50 more T206's to complete my set.

The end.

I'm 53 and practicing veterinary medicine after being disabled for 3 years by a spinal cord stroke. I collect W572 strip cards and E121 Yankees and Giants along with cards of Elmer Miller who was my great great uncle who played for the Yankees in 1921 and 1922. he was literally the first Yankee to get a hit in a World Series and was the first Yankee to score a run in a World Series.

This one can be the December thread. It's close enough.

I remain around the corner out of sight. You will not see or hear me. My stash is well hidden and those who know are sworn to secrecy. Tread softly and when walking eastward, I will favor your left shoulder. When you least expect it, I will appear, but I am also able to disappear in an instant. You are never safe. Is this a threat or a promise? It will be too late when you find out. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!

Hi, good to meet you!

I am 65, now i only buy Yankee cards but also have other New York old cards in all sports.

Love pre-1960 cards the best, and right now am dying to find a T207 Hoff to complete my Yankee team set run of T205/T206/T207. I collect all conditions, better to have a card in lessor condition than not to have it due to not being able to afford a great condition card.

I have an enormous amount of Yankee cards from 1906 thru current, but while i want all the pre-1981 Yankees i can get, from 1981 thru current i only select the ones i really like.

Collect Jewish athlete cards in all sports too, all years. Actually have over 200 different jewish athletes, most people think there havent been that many!! LOL
