you said it right "beloved" scrap......most of the scrap "chasers" I know have been tapped! you can ask them yourself....most of the "players" have stepped aside to let others have at them.(scrap)..
I'm sure you have made some profit, but try to buy downey back ...or some others....with these one- of- a- kinds, sometimes money just won't do it![]() there is a whole new arena of collectors entering the scene who have caught on.......and now desire these true gems... they will continue to catch on..... it's kinda of "bitter sweet" for me.... the cards are finally starting to get the recognition they truly deserve although out of my reach... not bitter, but happy now I have an incredible collection....regardless of value, I love them!! anyone who truly knows me, knows this is the truth...... am I a crusader?? possibly..... ![]() some call me the "Grand daddy of scrap" "scrap master"....a true "pioneer"... I know one thing.....card board gold ![]() you might have made profit , but can't bring those back to you... who is the bitter one??

Uh-oh, there you go again. So are you jealous over my having had cards at one time that you now love? Or is it something else? If it helps you any, I've probably only owned about 15 scraps, but I've owned literally thousands of other cards, as well as thousands of other pieces of sports memorabilia. Am I "bitter" over those items as well? Please give me a list of all of the cards I have owned that I am now bitter over. It doesn't matter much to me, but it might prove to be therapeutic for you. P.S. - stay away from sharp objects while you are creating the list.

If it makes you feel any better, I can list for you all of the items that I miss, in order. My T206 Jacklitsch proof would make the list, as would my T205 Reulbach scrap and my T206 Reulbach brown Hindu ledger page. Probably also one of the BL460's. Does that help any? Probably odd to you, but my miscut backs didn't do much for me other than earn a good profit when sold. I did like the upside-down Piedmont that was perfectly upside-down, but quite frankly - it looked like a normal card from either side ![]() The item I miss most out of anything I ever sold was my 1909 Pittsburg team supplement that once hung in Wagner's office.
