I've left instructions with my wife. Give them to my brother to sell, he's a collector too (modern, not vintage). He'll sell them and use the money for my kids college/future/etc. While I don't like to talk about mortality, it needs to be done. My wife wouldn't have any idea what to do with my cards.

Shred them? Other than marrying me, my wife's no fool. She knows money when she sees it!

Have you seen your updated life insurance policy I recommended for her in exchange for that card? It's substantial! Your daughter doesn't even go to college, she's vacationing in California, you're just paying the higher premiums

John, I am slightly jealous. I only do cardboard, although I do have, what appears to be, a signed baseball with PCL ball players from my grandfather.

I'm going to wait until I'm a grandfather, and then I'm hiding the collection in my attic.

I'll try to get a picture of it and send it to you. Has to be rare, he barely played in the majors. I was shocked when I got the MLB package and saw him on the A's telecasts
