I have had a passion for cards for a very long time and have shared this with my kids. I have two teenage boys and we collect cards together. This is one hobby that keeps my boys involved with me, even as an old embarrassing dad. Yes, my kids are xbox playing, iphone texting, facebook, instagram, tweeting kids like most youth of today. If you want our youth involved in vintage collecting, my advise is this for the future of our hobby: Take them to Cooperstown and spend the weekend visiting the HOF and the memorabilia shops. We did this last summer and had the best time of our lives. Stay at the KOA campground north of town, turn off the TV and video games, by a box or two of cards (regardless of the years), open the packs, enjoy going through the cards, build a fire, cook a hot dog, go to sleep and repeat it all the next day. The future is our kids, teach them what we know.
