PSA card collector at the Louvre:

Tour Guide: "This is Whistler's Mother."
Card collector: "Is that her rookie painting?"

I make these jokes just to demonstrate that many card collecting rules and sentiments are idiosyncratic to card collecting and can be wrong headed if not plain silly when applied elsewhere.

I originally thought that, in the famous 1922 German silent horror film, Nosferatu and his accompanying hoard of rats symbolized the black plague crossing the sea to enter society, but now I realize they symbolized PSA baseball card registry collectors, eBay resellers and their paper cutters entering the photo hobby the day PSA starts grading photos. I mean just look what those registry blood suckers did to those poor innocent virginal 1966 Sporting News magazines once they found out PSA would grade the Nolan Ryan pictures inside.


Nosferatu awaiting the day PSA/DNA starts grading photos. He's run out of Sporting News magazines, and needs more innocent blood.
