NOTES: |
|
I actually started
collecting in 1959, the first year
I bought Topp’s Cards and got my
first Mickey Mantle. I saved my
1959, 60’ and 61’ cards and never
sold them or gave them away. Always
a big baseball fan, I revive
interest in collecting again in
1981 when my son was born. I had
programs, yearbooks, cards,
pictures that I had accumulated
over the years in a tote. It was
easier back in the early 80’s to
find great Items at an affordable
price. That was the beginning and
it just grew from there. It is
already willed to my son, another
great baseball fan.
There
is no dollar value in a collection
that makes you reminisce and give
you back a moment of your youth.
The best collections are the ones
that the owner enjoys and no money
can buy. There is no price on fond
memories.. |
