What is the story behind your moniker/avatar?

[bbcard1]

BBCARD1 is my license plate. I was on the internet very early so it also became my identity there.

My moniker is my location and ebay id. I'm pretty surprised it's still accurate considering how often I moved before joining ebay in 1998.

My avatar is from one of my favorite pennants.

Mine is usually a Cobb item from my collection or had in my collection. I changeup once in awhile.

My avatar is of the PSA 6 Cobb I used to own (only card I regret selling)

Vegas-guy: I lived in Las Vegas most of my life (now if Austin, TX)

Simply, I began collecting as a six-year-old boy in the spring of 1961. My first cards were from a box of Post Cereal, and days later, I got my first three wax packs of Topps cards at a restaurant where my family and I had just dined. We were just sitting at the table, talking. Restless, I walked up to the checkout, where a candy counter was located. I noticed the Greek owner had wax packs of baseball cards.... ----Brian Powell

Avatar -- T210-1 Balenti. Of my entire set, probably one of my favorites. Has the Sav. and I love his "What the hell expression."

Moniker -- My parents Bull Terrier, Lefty (c. 2000). I always called him "My Buddy." The greatest dog that ever lived. I was trying to get a shot of him lifting his leg on his favorite leg lifting bush. Missed the shot, but got a beautiful photo of a beautiful dog. Bringing a tear to my eye ....

Fun stuff, Scott (oh, that's the "S" in S. Gross )

Avatar-Discovered Graig Kreindler's art about a year ago.This work is not only my favorite work by him but one of my favorite portraits ever.Its uniqueness in depicting Mathewson in his late teens while playing for Norfolk is a step above the usual portraits .He has this look hoping for a better year then the 2-13 record the previous season with Taunton!

Avatar: I've always found the Doubleday myth interesting. Plus, it's my oldest card (c1864).

Moniker: My name, backwards.
