    Getting back into the hobby with awesome vintage HOF cards like those is a good thing! How about the old school Cardinal uniform on Ollie Matson!

    HaHa! For all you "young whippersnappers" out there too young to remember this reference, here it is.

    I've really taken a liking to hockey in recent years even though I only slightly followed the sport. I don't see anywhere near the amount of older hockey cards compared to the other three sports so they often come off as something new. But from the early 70s to the mid 80s (like the one...

    Do you remember when Wade Boggs was going to go in as a Tampa Bay Ray but MLB put the stop to it? I think the Rays were paying him to do that. After that incident Jim Rome was pushing for Mike Piazza to go intpo the Hall as a Florida Marlin! LMAO.

    If late in life Pete was inducted into the HOF, he should have insisted going in as an Expo just to spite MLB.

    This guy was a huge deal "Back in the day". Led the NFL in INTs 3 times and 3 tmes 1st team All Pro. I'm wondering why he is not in the HOF unless he had too few great years. I always put his RCs in my star dups box. If I have any dups of it left, I am sure they are still in the same...

    More than Tony Gonzalez? I need to look this up Update: I had forgotten Gonzalez played for several seasons with Atlanta. So even though Kelcie is a fair amount behind Gonzalea on the career receptions list, he does have more than him as a Chief.

    Another '64 Wheaties, I assume? Yep. Just looked it up and it is indeed a 1964 Wheaties stamp. You are definately on the All Advanced Collector's Team! I was surprised to see that with all the A-listers in that 64 Wheaties set that there was not a Mantle. Must have been a contractual...

    I've always gravitated towards his RCs since he was #2 on the career receptions list when he retired and there was a regionsl factor with him being a former Syracuse player. I just looked up the career recepions leaders and Rice was #1 (obviousy) followed by Fitzgerald, Gonzalez and Witten who...

    Wow! I've never seen any of those two issues either. Awesome pick ups!!

    Wow dude! I was more than curious as to what those are and after a little research, I see the one on the left is a 1960 Topps tattoo. That has to be worth a small fortune. THe one on the right I'm curious as to what that item is. I looked on Trading card database from 1966 and earlier and...

    Is that an oversized card or a regular sized one? I have a pile of two different Pacific oversized cards somewhere around here and that Grbac looks similar to one of those sets. That GG prefix on the card number looks familiar too..

    That is a shame about his Parkinson's Disease diagnosis.. Man, he's not that old either. This made me wonder about a 24 kt gold version of this card. Action Packed only made 26 parallel 24 kt golds for this 84 card set and Favre was not among them. I was wondering why I had never heard about...

    Very sad what happened to him after a HOFish type start to his career. He did however make a HOF which was the Broadcasters Hall of Fame. I used to listen to him and Joe Tait on Cleveland's WWWE AM station in the 70s. That station was a real flamethrower as it came in at night in upstate NY...

    A nice run of Rookie Hofers and vintage superstars this morning with Scobes, TC84 and you! BTW, I agree with you on 1985 being another line of demarcation in sports card history. 1986 slowly began the junk era period with the thought that Jose Canseco was going to be the greatest power...

    You are almost like Moses wandering the desert for 40 years. You're wandering through the sports card waste land will end 1 year earlier assuming the USPS doesn't lose these 1985s. LOL

    I'd love to see the grades on those two cards if you send them in. I'm torn between 72 and 73 Topps baseball for the line for real vintage. The series factor is definately the big factor. I think because the 73 Highs are not that scarce like the 72s, I lean towards the 72s. It is a hard...
