My first purchases...

I hadn't bought a card since I was a kid, but I just got these recently. Trying to get back into the hobby I love. Nothing too expensive, but I think a nice entree into collecting again. I always loved the look of these two sets.

1973 Mets are my favorite team.

It can be tough being a Mets fan, but I guess the quantity of lows makes the highs that much better!

I haven't seen many that centered with sharp corners and nice color. I was lucky to find it!

78 and 79 are 2 of my favorites also...very clean designs, great for autographs!

I recently got back into the hobby as well...just staying away from the new stuff to concentrate ont the vintage!

I like pre-eighties stuff better for the most part. The designs were amazing. '78 and '79 have such clean lines and great images.

Mine also. I am still mad at Yogi Berra for not pitching George Stone!
