    Thanks Thanks for the welcome. It's nice to be on such a friendly site. I went to your webpage and it looks like you are only interested in one thing. I know looks can be deceiving. I started a thread under baseball trading. I'm mostly a player collector and it shows the hall of famers I have...

    Question

    ? Okay, Cal's name and the Select '95 Certified Edition are in a gold or bronze metallic foil and when you tilt the card the background is metallic and shiny, but Cal's face is not. Nothing special about the back that I can see. Sorry if I sound ignorant, but obviously I am about this. This...

    Oh yeah, one more thing, what about cards that I can't find mentioned in Beckett's? For instance the Donruss 1986 Highlights subset. Don't find that anywhere. And Fleer's Baseball's Best (1985 and 1986), don't find that either.

    Thanks for the welcome everyone. I don't know about the Molitor Diamond Kings. I'll be sorting through what I have over the next couple of weeks (or however long it takes, I, unfortunately, have to work for a living and I also (fortunately) have a family to keep happy), but I will be listing...

    Hi, My name is John and I found the bench totally by accident. I'm in the process of consolidating a card collection that I put together in the early 90's and I was wanting to sell or trade cards but was having trouble finding ways to do that. Ebay doesn't seem like a very good avenue unless you...
