Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

  1. Nice lot, Jeff! That #97 is another game event Chris Stufflestreet ID'd in a 2011 post. Based on the Candlestick setting and slide, he picked out July 16, 1972.

Sorry about the word verification, but blogger sucks at filtering out the comments as of late. As bad as their last update is.
