|  Why I collect 
			
			Sometimes you stumble on a card that is so incredible cool it just takes your breath away.  Don't collect these, don't have any, but . . . wow.  That's just beautiful. http://www.ebay.com/itm/PSA-8-HUGH-J...MAAOSwOVpXUyR- In 1960 Burdick wrote that a card collection is "a magic carpet that takes you away from work-a-day cares to havens of relaxing quietude where you can relive the pleasures and adventures of a past day—brought to life in vivid picture and prose." |

			Yep, noticed that too.  But still a really cool card.  I don't care if it's overpriced or whatever, but is a beautiful card.   VintageBen;1636272]how is this card a 1/1 if there is another one that graded the same???? Plus his math is way off...[/QUOTE] |
