I have a great deal of respect for those before who did great research and had an incredible passion for cards when they were not worth the price of a car.

Without the cataloging of the cards, the constant search for hard to find issues etc...the information we have today might not exist.

However...I do not like how some old timers belittle some newer collectors simply because they were not there when it started, when it was "pure"

Its always the same thing...they dont like PSA, SGC..but ask them why...its because they cant grade a card they way they please anymore.. they can buy and sell cards using their "when you sell its gold when you buy its crap" line that created the demand for universal grading.

I enjoy the hobby very much ...The one now with graded cards, the crappy shiny stuff ebay the whole thing.

I love reading this board and the PSA boards...thats fun to me. This is how i learn, not quite as sending letters to Burdick ...but pretty good in its own way.

It seems to me that the old timers choose what to remember from the past at times...there was a reason why grading companies were created...there was a demand from collectors.

Some old timers have become gators..some will die as hobby dinosours.
