Default A couple more.

While I have only been here 2 yrs, and post mostly on the memorabilia side, I have learned a few things I would like to pass on.

1) No question is a bad question, BUT there is a great wealth of knowledge already in the boards memory banks. Using the search function will get you truckloads of data about everything. It can be a time saver, instead of waiting for replies on the board.

2) It took me a while to find it, but utilize the link above "Vintage Links" to do all sorts of research. It includes links to various members' collection websites, auction houses, grading companies, well known dealer sites, and historical sites like Retrosheet and Baseball Reference, two of my favorities. The dates on the auction lists need to be updated as I'm sure the next B&L auction isn't Sept 2008.

3) Don't forget to visit the memorabilia forum. We discuss autographs, pictures, statues, trophies, and just about anything else that isn't a card. Come on in. Don't be afraid. We don't bite over there!
