Found this doing a search and thought it might be cool to bring it back from the dead, although I see it will probably die again after a few new entries, as it has done a few times before.

1. Name- Curt

2. Age- 46

3. Day job- Operations Manager for a large elevator company

4. Location- Pacific NW

5. Collecting interest- Dodgers, signed cards, Steve Garvey, oddball stuff that catches my eye.

6. Family- wife of 16 years and 2 boys (11 & 13)

7. How long in hobby- Collecting nearly continuously since 1978, minus about a 5 year gap (88-92) while I was active duty USN, where submarine life is not conducive to hobbies.

8. Other interests- Muscle Cars (last owned was 70 Cuda), music (I don't collect, but loved to buy old records and CDs), trips/sightseeing/exploring with my family.

9. Do you attend shows? Not so much these days. Maybe a small one every so often, but never been to one larger than a small town monthly back in the heyday or the semiannual WSSCA show periodically. May try a National some day.

Most can see my location and name in every post and what i typically collect.
Mostly post-war, started all Mantle stuff, then switched to 40-60's Hof'er rookie cards.
Got some love for pre-war Hofer too, like Cobb, Ruth.
Figure i add some humor with the business card:
