TT- Nice story. My advice is to pay it forward, in other words, extend a similar act of kindness to someone else who might need something you can help him out with. Not only will this be a kind gesture but you'll find you will make collecting friends which can be invaluable down the line.

TT...
We actually spoke not too long ago about some T210's Series 6 because I wanted a Lexington one (10 mins from where I am from)... I was actually given a Series 6 Olson (Richmond)... Now, like you I want an Old Judge Louisville...one day... But yes that is what the hobby is about... Great card btw!!! Travis

Great Story Travis
Thanks for the replies everyone. That is great that you got a series 6 card travis. As we talked about before I focus on the winchester team and I had a few non winchester players but I recently sold them. I would like to get a series 6 richmond player down the line though. I would also like to let tbob know that my prewar collection is still very small and totals about 9 cards, but the teacher I did my student teaching with last spring was a big reds fan and I gave him a very nice 1971 Topps pete rose which he was very excited about. I am sure down the road I will be able to help fellow collectors out with prewar stuff as well.

Great story. Ive had similar things happen a couple times to me on here. I hope to be able to help out in some similar way too at some point.
Despite big money/big business, we all remember this is still the greatest/most interesting hobby there is, no matter at what level.

Paying It Forward
Great story about paying it forward. To that end, several years ago I was writing a monthly column for Baseball Hobby News. One of my columns was about the joy of opening a 1960 Topps baseball pack back when I was 8 years old. So what happens? A collector/dealer sends me one of his unopened 1960 Topps packs. What a thrill to open it! Great thread - there are still a lot of collectors who 'Get It' about our hobby.
