So they were a card dealer company that also made a few sets of their own on the side? Like the Card Collectors Company?

This discussion got me curious as to what Renata Galasso actually was so I did a little research. I have not been able to read the whole page but how this woman got started is truely astounding!!

They were more like a mail order place.........I think I found them in Baseball Digest, actually.......I'd read that cover to cover each month......They just sold complete sets as far as I could tell.......

Leaf is king of the 1/1s. Lol

I don’t have single 1/1 to post, silly or otherwise

It was one of those "hot box"......box.....every card was a silly 1/1....not a fan of the term hot box.....also case hit and color match can go away....I believe I'm officially a grumpy old man!
