            Okay I guess I am the old guy here. Same sad story. I had a baseball card collection in the late 50's that got thrown away while I was at college. My son and I collected in the early 90's. He had around 40,000 (guess who bought them) and I had about 1200. I specialised in older ones and over 75 different Nolan Ryan's. Traded my whole collection for one awesome arrowhead but that is another story. Once in the late 90's I bought a large binder of cards at a garage sale. They were '53 to '57.......Bowman and Topps! Made lots of cash out of that 10 dollar investment.

                Wow Ray I can't imagine finding a binder like that for 10 bucks. I knew there had to he some collectors in here. My brother has a nice Nolan Ryan auto and a Roberto Clemente 8x10 auto as well.

                  It was an amazing find. Lots of '53 Bowman. They were really neat. At that time there was a bunch of 100 plus dollar cards in there. The guy right before for me picked out 6 cards and left the rest. He bought the Mickey Mantles and the Yogi Berras.

                          Jay one of my buddies drives to tournaments in Columbus Ohio. Watching him prepare is a serious deal haha. Him and his brother are ranked in WV. I remember once on our lunch break some guy met him to give him some cards for his event. I asked him how much those were worth and it was somewhere around $500. Insane
