I collect Roy Campanella. My first vintage card was a '53 Topps Campy that I saw at a show that I was working with my dad around 1992. I couldn't stop staring at it and my dad ended up getting it for me for Christmas that year. A few years ago I started collecting all of his cards I could find (and afford). I've wizened up a bit the past couple of years and am concentrating on his cards through 1979 and have sold all the modern cards I had accumulated. I'm missing a couple of cards from the PSA master set but they don't show up too often (or are out of my price range at the moment). While I wait for them I am getting ready to start a Musial collection. I will also eventually work on a Bob Gibson set.
My other card collection (still very much in its infancy) is one that I'm working on with my boys. We're trying to get one card of every player that has played for the Cardinals since 1900. Obviously that's impossible since quite a few of the players played to few games to have a card produced. Eventually I'd like to produce my own cards for them but I haven't a clue how to do that.

Speaking of Al Oliver, I have 4 or 5 of his cards autographed (through the mail) from back in the day. I believe they all show him on the Rangers. They are all available for trade if anyone is interested and can be found on page 33 in the autographs section of my bucket.

You have some really nice 70s star/HOF autos there.
