VACATION !!!!!

Go Go's Vacation  ( The 80's Best Girl Band)

I have been on VACATION since last Friday.  Thought I would have posted here and update my Web Store before now...BUT.....

My wife had other plans...  THE HONEY DO LIST ...   which she continues to add to every time I turn around. 

I have been able to knock off a few things on the list, so I am able to make a quick post.

Thanks again to those following.  I am going to try and round up a few cards for my followers.

My most important agenda right now is getting as many cards as possible inventoried on The Trading Card Database site, along with more listings in my WebStore and Ebay.

Always filling your want list  :  fasportscards@gmail.com.

All reasonable offers / trades are considered at my web store.  As time permits I am updating my want list.  

KEEP ON COLLECTING !!

34th National Sports Collectors Convention

I have never been to this convention.  Every time it has been in the Chicago area, I have thought about going.  I live in MN, so it wouldn't be that far of a drive.  

But, I had a big choice to make.  My wife gave me the option of one or the other, but not both....

  The Convention this year  ---    or   THE 2014 ALL STAR GAME next year here at Target Field.

I choose to try and get tickets for the All Star Game next year.  $$$$$$$$$

If I can't get tickets for the Big game, maybe at least take part in the activities before hand.

Hope everyone that goes to the convention has a super time.

Maybe next time it's back in Chicago, I will be able to attend.  (2015??)

KEEP ON COLLECTING!!

I finally found a few moments to catch up on some of the blogs.

I also was able to add a few cards to my inventory in my WEBSTORE .

check out my sites, using the tabs at the top of my blog.

Please:  Use my web store and site as another source for your collecting needs.

I have over 900,000 cards and will not be able to list them all.  So if you need anything from the 80's and 90's: I can probably help.

Poor Old Baseball Card.......

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY everyone!!!

Where has the month gone???  Busy busy busy..

Dance recitals , Band concerts , end of school activities, Prom, Graduation coming up, school senior party I volunteered to help with (I only have to cover 10pm to midnight), and of coarse the GRADUATION party (open house) with a mile and a half long honey do list to finish before Friday 5/31.

But I did have to take time for a quick blog. 

Anthony Tarantino over at Poor Old Baseball Card (POBC) is running a month long contest to win a few POBCs.  All you need to do is leave a comment on his blog for a chance to win.

Here is what I won.....

1969 Topps Bob Clemente

Here are the remaining cards that you can have a chance to win:

1973 Willie Mays

1974 Hank Aaron
1975 Reggie Jackson

So if condition doesn’t matter, visit POBC blog for a chance to win.

It’s not always about that perfect Gem-Mint 10 … Is it?”

 

Its great to get these cards and wonder where they have been.  Some kid back in 1969, that was a Clemente fan/ Pirates fan, pulled this card from a wax pack and carried it in is pocket to show his friends. Awww.. Memories...back than condition didn't matter.  If they were cards you were keeping, they were thrown into a shoe box, binded together with a rubber band.  Or you might have stuck the unwanted card in the spokes of your bike for that clack clack clack sound.

 

THANKS ANTHONY!!!!   For bringing me back into collecting the NOT Gem Mint 10 Vintage cards.

 

Thanks for reading

Everyone have a safe Holiday

and

KEEP ON COLLECTING!!
