Nice appeal to scrap collectors sense of self worth and perception of intelligence!

He has a point though. When you are a die hard T206 collector and finish up what is doable for you, then what? From experience I can confidently say some collectors that are life long collectors, and have completed the whole set, have started collecting them.

Leon...that's a really nice sentiment on valentines day...like a good relationship...the love keeps growing as you expose more about your mate!

Or in my case...once I saw the Lunacy within(T206 that is)...I broke up with her!!!!!

An Ode to Johnny V
An adaptation by Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Eminem & Rihanna

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
Get along with the voices inside of my head
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
You're trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop

Yet, it don’t mean a thing, if it ain’t got that swing
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
If it’s not a piece of crap, you ain’t got that scrap
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop
It makes no difference if it’s sweet or not
Just give that dealer everything you got
Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop, Doo-wop

Just got off a terrible 16 hour day to read this thread.....and it just put a HUGE smile on my face!

LOVE the SONG FRANK the man!!.....and Leon, Frank and Pete , you are the collectors , the veterans, who really define this hobby to many.....true living legends....Wonka, Tim, Jim, Johnny , Clayton, Adam, Vin, Mike, Chris B, Mike S., Hank, Erick, Jamie, Chaz, Barry , Scott, OMG, there are so so many more I haven't mentioned, you guys know who you are....just are golden in this hobby....make it a hobby for me.....I wouldn't enjoy the hobby as much if I couldn't read this board , or have met half the decent people in this world....

Gotta say, T206 and collectors here make my life , a sad as that might sound, it's very true

YOU GUYS ROCK...


btw.....I have come to realize over the years that without decent collectors, the cards are not as fun.....and in essence, are worthless.....people are what drive these


Happy V day everyone.....enjoy the freak show...

btw...if anyone would like to see my circus, just email me

Hey Johnny, I just wanted to say that I always enjoy your enthusiasm and input, I feel you also make the board a great place. We've had many conversations and your collection (in my opinion) is one of the best I have had the pleasure to view!

I LOVE scrap cards, miscuts, ghosts, WST's, and even color shifts. If I could afford to collect these cards I would. I do go after the small stuff, like WST's and color shifts, the other stuff is just a bit out of range. But for the collector who loves one of a kind cards, this is where it's at. That's why I don't think it's a bubble, more of a dimension that more collectors will eventually gravitate to (if you stick with T206's).If I ever won the lottery, you guys better watch out

To each their own, I ALWAYS love to look at these cards-even freaks from other sets-because they are unique.

Sincerely, Clayton
