Old Cardboard magazine
Do any of you subscribe to Old Cardboard magazine? Is it worth subscribing, I'm also thinking about buying the past twenty issues for the holiday rate.
Any thought? |

I subscribe. It's definitely worth it (I wish there were more issues per year.) And picking up the back issues is a good idea. They are a great source of info.

Definitely worth it. And while you're picking up back issues, add to your list the full run of VCBC, and Lipset's Encyclopedia of Baseball Cards.

Yes and I enjoy it
I just bought the first 20 and subscribed as well. I'm reading through the back issues trying to catch up. Currently on issue 6. A great investment that is well worth the marginal annual fee.
Do it, you won't regret it. I have also recently picked up all 38 issues of VCBC and will be reading through those as well. Any other publications worth subscribing too? Brian |

as mentioned....

1. Oldcardboard subscription and back issues. 2. VCBC = the complete run of 38-39 issues 3. Lipset's Encyclopedia (around $30 all the time on ebay) 4. Current Krause SCD Baseball big book If you get those 4 things you will be in really good shape for collecting pre-war and for having a good understanding of our cards, imo. Other than those only "time in" and experience will do any better. Also, looking at the Archive section on this board (upper right icon) will help quite a bit too. Good luck and happy collecting!!

75% of the way there
Lipset's encyclopedia is on the way. I have a Krause SCD guide but it is 2-3 years old. Good enough for now.
