For those who don't know, my father passed away in 2020. One of the things he left behind was a box of inexpensive Mattingly cards. I'm just now getting around to going through the box. For me, it will be an experience that means quite a bit more than sorting through a random bargain box at a show or opening packs. I don't know exactly what I'll find; however, I'll know where it came from.
I realize 99% of the people on Net54 won't care about this, and that's fine.
(Hell, I'd say 90% of the people on Net54 never even visit the 1980-present forum.)
For everyone else, thanks for checking out this thread from time to time.

I visit here and I think it is very cool, thanks for sharing. It is always better to see cards that actually mean something than ones worth money.
