John, thanks for the link to this fantastic Boswell article from 1991, which I'm sure I would have read back then but have no memory of due to my advanced CRS condition. Only a few years befor this article was written, I had resurrected my 1955-1960 childhood baseball card collection and begun collecting again. Thankfully, some years earlier, Mom had called to ask if I wanted my boxes of cards she and Dad had found while cleaning out our their storage area, before tossing them into the trash!
