Gotten back into collecting sports cards after finding all my ones from when I was a kid. Been about a year of buying singles and sets, life long cardinals fan as you can tell!

Sidenote: one covered if Pujols/ichiro rookie card

  1. Nice collection!! I’ve been slowly grabbing the 2001 Topps Traded Pujols RC over the last year or so. Have three, two regular and one Chrome.

    Also pulled a really cool Pujols case hit from Topps last year too. I have quite a few others too but most of my PC isn’t displayed right now.

  2. It’s all packed away, but my favorite card from my boyhood collecting was a signed 1987 Willie McGee card. Not his rookie, and in hilariously bad condition for a card that couldn’t have been more than five years old when I won a silent auction for it ($5 was kind of a lot to me in ~92). The last I looked, absolutely none of my collection are worth more than maybe $20 bucks. The other kids and I that hung out in the card shop trading with each other never minded a bit of a chipped corner or an off-center printing. My beloved Eddie Murray RC I used to say “Its worth $120!” and could maybe get a fifth of that if I tried to sell it in Baltimore.

    Still could look through those binders and have a little story about who knows how many of those cards I’d pour over for hours back then.

  3. Great collection! I recently picked up a Lou Brock graded rookie. It was a birthday present to myself.
