All I can say is that I have been reading these boards for what has to be 5 years or more. I dont often chime in because I have acknowledged that there are people on these boards who have far more understanding of pre-war than I will ever have. I log on, read the boards, absorb information, gain knowledge, post occasionally and appreciate everyone here. But I have to tell you Phil has worn out his welcome on every board he has been on. To him its all about the money he has to throw around.

So in my best south side Chicago accent because I know thats where you live....

Phil, we get it..you have some money to trow around and you have that HUGE sout side ego you need to feed. Just get this tru your thick freaking head...don't come on here talking bout da cards you know nutting about yet. Absorb information and den make a contriBUtion worth writin' about. Now go get yourself a polish and a RC cola for dinner and relax!!

Andrew,

Thanks for the RC reference. One of my fondest collecting memories is drinking rivers of that stuff in the summers of 1977 and '78 in an attempt to collect complete sets of 70 and 100 cans, respectively. Displayed them pyramid style on top of a bookcase in my room.

I loved the RC Cola cans, at first. But they sure took up a lot of space in my closet! Eventually I dumped them cheap at a show in the 1980's. Got tired of moving them around. Also dumped the 7-11 cups. Remember them?

Boy, do I remember those!!

[Bridwell]

At least the 7-11 cups were stackable. I had dozens of those!

RC Cola cans....geez I had forgotten all about those. I never thought about collecting those when I was drinking the pop. My mom would have killed me!!

Some definitions for Chicago:

Common- a knee jerk reaction to a differing opinion.

Scarce- An understanding that many of us have put in years, and in some cases, decades of research and data collection to reinforce our opinions and theories.

Rare- a post that is non antagonistic in its approach or a sincere request for knowledge in order to educate oneself on some of the finer points of baseball cards.

Rare.. the proper way to cook a steak!!!

When it comes to cards i like the term "price sensitive" rather then rare.
