They are all lazy now while complaining about having to sign while being paid for it. Most just give a squiggle of a line, and if you are lucky you actually get their initials. |

I also think a little of it is because they don’t teach kids how to write in cursive in school anymore. If you’ve been seriously collecting for a long time, you can definitely see where this was phased out.

Over paid, but I've always liked this card and got tired of waiting on a 10.

Added another Mahomes rookie to my collection. Many seasoned collectors don’t even know these exist. I had been waiting on one to show up on eBay for a few years. It’s from an 18 card Texas Tech multi-sport set released by Panini in 2017 that was only sold in Lubbock at the stadiums & bookstore and online.

I'm done bidding, so one of you with deeper pockets might as well take a look. I think it's a pretty neat card.

I couldn't pass up the Montana. It's too silly not to and was the cheapest Chiefs Montana auto I could find at that time. How many checklist autos have you seen of his? And he sign a lot. |

Last trip home to visit the family, I brought back a frame holding 9 of my favorite cards/players from the late 80s early 90s time frame. These weren't necessarily my best cards as those were in the 1 inch thick acrylic cases. However, in the frame I have:
1990 Leaf Will Clark 1986 Topps George Brett: (as a kid I wanted every George Brett Topps card, I should try to check that off the bucket list one of these days) 1986 Donruss Jose Canseco 1982 Fleer Cal Ripken Jr 1986 Topps Traded Bo Jackson 1982 Topps Rickey Henderson 1989 Donruss Ken Griffey Jr (Never managed to get myself the Upper Deck rookie) 1985 Donruss Darryl Strawberry 1983 Topps Rune Sandburg I went ahead and hung the frame up. Though now I'm thinking perhaps swapping some of the cards out. Perhaps picking up some random Salvy or Bobby Witt Jr card. i don't necessarily want to drop a ton of money or cards or making sure it is a 10 gem mint or whatever the grading scale is. Realistically, I'm just going to look at it on the wall every day. Do I just buy whatever I see off ebay or any advice in the card market nowadays? |
