The Collector You'd Most Like To Meet

Posted By: David Smith

The kid from the 19 teens or twenties who collected because his father and grandfather collected and whose collection was lost forever because of fire, flood, paper drives or by just being thrown away.

I would love to hear why and see what they collected, how they stored their cards and what cards they valued and why. Also, to see how some of the cards were issued and where they came from.

Finally, I would like to see how the loss of the collection affected them. Was it the cards themselves, the history behind collecting them, the love of baseball or the memories they had associated with them?
