My great great uncle played ball dor the 1921 Yankees as their center fielder in the 1921 World Series so it was in my blood. Also I was a victim of the 1969 Cubs heartbreak that made me a lifetime fan or the Cubbies. Had to have cards of my idols growing up. In the 2000’s went to Cubs camp for 5 times and know many of the retired Cubs personally. Went to Lee Smiths induction into the 2019 class furthering my Cub extravaganza. That is how I got into and continue into collecting.
