A Hal Chase with Trophy from ebay. PSA 5. Was one of my first prewar cards and really got me hooked on vintage.

Square trade!

My first T206 was bought, by my wife, at a card show in a Holiday Inn, in the early 1990's, near Chicago. The seller was a guy who said he had hitchhiked from Detroit. He was just walking around and selling during the show without a table.

My first was a plank. Found out it was a RP of course. Then bought a Snodgrass batting PB back. Over the next 3 months I bought over 50% of the set. Then got bit by the 205 bug and been hooked since. Sold my 206's except a few and bought 205's since they are a bit more challenging to amass. My daughter has my first few 206's and has quite a collection so far. Every card she has now has come from a board member via trades, purchases, and some donated cards. Her favorite is a PSA 1 Adkins given to her by none other than Dave. She always pulls it out tells whomever that this guys grandson gave her that card.

Bill Bradley with bat. PSA 2 on eBay in 2005. Still have it. Wanted a Cleveland player, great pose and under $20. Crossed to an SGC 40 2 years ago.
