Recurring theme
Amazing how many of us have been through similar stints away from the hobby. I sold 95% of my collection in 1998 via Superior Sports Auctions. I stayed away until about 5 years ago (got divorced and found money). I am back into the T206's and at about 400 and hoping to be at 450.
Enjoy the show. My advice would be to walk the show with very little money unless you truly know a direction you want to go. Otherwise you could end up all over the board on purchases. Enjoy !!

Don't overlook the archives!
Welcome, "Rock." As prior posters have noted, you are certainly in the right place, as the cumulative knowledge and experience of these guys is probably unbeatable, with tremendous willingness to help. The "search" function should prove invaluable for acquiring knowledge with regard to an incredible number of topics and/or cards. There's a saying in coins, "buy the book before the coin," meaning its awfully hard to beat the acquistion of knowledge when trying to make sensible purchases in whatever direction you decide to go in.
May your collecting endeavors always prove rewarding! Larry

Thanks for the nice welcome to the group and the sage advice. The hobby seems to have changed greatly over the years. I will take it slow and have a good long look before I jump back in. I am sure that I will have some questions as time goes by.
Thanks again, the Rock
