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.

  2. Had no clue Jackson started his career as an Athletic. I'll have to track down one of his A's cards for the collection.

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