Richard LloydWell,
.. Like most I collected as a child in the late 1960's to Mid 1970's
and still have many of my cards today.. I did sell a 1933 Babe Ruth card # 144 in mint condition in 1986 for 250 dollars.. BOY, I wish I could take that one back!!!! However, as a child I loved my cards and played with them so there shape is not that great.... I spent the early 1990s collecting all the cool inserts and high tech cards which I have MANY boxes in my attack.. But I stopped after awhile because I figured out I was paying BIG bucks for cards that would NEVER NEVER have any future value PLUS the players were all new and I did not have time to follow them..
I started collecting about 4 years ago when I bought a KRAUSE price guide for fun at Barnes and Noble... I saw all the cool regional food and minor league cards...at the same time I bought a new computer for the family and FINALLY discovered EBAY!!!!
.. I have not looked back since and ebay has become my main source in finding vintage regional food and minor leagure cards... I guess its better late then never..
Best
Dick
