Hi Mike, glad you are here. Very interesting topic for collecting. Mr. Thorpe is no doubt one of the all time great athletes in this country.

You know...as time goes by and fewer and fewer kids get involved in the hobby the more I get set in stone to get his name and legacy out in the open. I believe it is a unique collection which is a big reason in persuing it. I teach Oklahoma and U.S. History so I make sure that I do an extensive section about him in class so I get to put his name out in the public quite a bit!

I see that you collect Sam Rice so you personally know how hard it can be to even find ...much less purchase excellent items for your collection. I guess that’s the fun of it huh? I’ve always walked to the beat of a different drummer so I’m always thinking of different angles to make my collection even better. I’ve even purchased some team photos of the teams he would have competed against so maybe I’m going to far away from my focus...time will tell. I’ll eventually put it all in sequential order and tell his story!

Oh my gosh..uh..yes it is a fantastic card! I sold a PSA 8 sport kings, PSA 3 famous and Barr like yours and a 1922 zeenut(authentic) 8 or 9 years ago so I indeed know what you possess! Kinda wish I had not sold them now but had some dire family issues so it had to be done and would do it again. Love your card and thanks for showing it! Mike
