    Best "find" at a card show/garage sale/flea market/etc?

    These aren't "sports" cards, but I bought a book of mid to late 19th century cabinet photos, tintypes, etc. and among them was a cabinet card signed by Tiffany founder Charles Louis Tiffany. He gave the cards away for (I think) his 80th birthday. I sold that one for $300.00 and many of the...

    Any seen this before?

    What else is odd, is that no site I checked lists his name as "Robin"...they all say "Robert".

    When is a good time to stop?

    I think it's a good time to take a break when you make a post like you did. Clearly you have other pressing concerns that trump sports cards. I think a break would make sense, at least from buying new product. You can always trade, especially PWE trades where the postage won't be significant...

    6 TTM and A Questionable eBay

    I think the patch is good. It's already a low serial numbered patch variety, so I don't see an advantage to add a fake one. Sometimes patch card openings don't fit well. I like it.

    Anybody know this ebay seller

    He has a plethora of negatives as a seller lately. Did you go through Ebay and file a claim? Many of the feedback say the bidders got their money back.

    What was your first TTM?

    I don't remember, but it would have been a 1987 Topps as I sent a bunch of those out that year. The players I remember getting are: Harold Baines, Jody Davis, Dwight Evans, Dale Murphy, Tim Raines and Tony Gwynn.

    Removing Personalizations

    Very cheap. About $2.00 for a pack of two. I can tell you it takes tar off a rug. If you try it I wouldn't get the kind with the rough scrubber side, just get the original. Try it on a card you dont need first. Maybe sign one yourself and give it a day to dry, then test it.

    Non-recessed screwdown holder needed

    I can only suggest to you, please, don't use a non-recessed screw down holder. They have been known to stick to the card surface over time. I just mention this as a fellow collector hoping to save you any problems. I'm not saying it always happens, but it can and I would feel very badly for you...

    Tim, First I want to say, sorry the autos ended up being facsimiles. It would have been an amazing buy. Just want to tell you there's no need for you to apologize to us...this was not a waste of time. #1...we're all along for the ride with each other. When someone makes a great find we all feel...

    Need your opinions whether to get a card graded

    The cartoons on the '64s were revealed when a coin was rubbed over them. If they were rubbed and the cartoon has faded I think Beckett might consider that a lower surface grade...maybe? I would think if the cartoon is not showing because it wasn't rubbed, that would be a plus. To answer the...
