Why we love the hobby

[Golfcollector]

My days of collecting started in my small hometown of Ceresco, Nebraska. The summers were filled with playing games of pick up baseball, basketball and football with friends. On Saturday mornings we would ride our bikes to the local park which doubled as the baseball diamond for our town team.


I don’t specifically remember the first pack of cards I would have purchased, but it was likely riding home from one of these practices. Blodgett’s IGA grocery store was the place to go as there was no better excuse after a hard baseball practice than stopping to get some candy, Big League Chew bubble gum, and a package or two of Topps baseball cards.
