Hello Everyone,

I'm a new member just wanting to introduce myself. I dove back into the hobby in 2017 after about a decade break (and have been lurking here since then).

I recently found my childhood cards in the proverbial "shoebox in the attic," which included the creased T206 Ed Walsh a dealer persuaded me to pick up for about $10 at my first card show. I think I was about 12-years-old at the time, and he steered me away from the few packs of Upper Deck that I was considering instead. Thanks, man, wherever you are!

Excited to join this community and I appreciate the warm welcome received from the members I've been chatting with.

- Benjamin

Welcome!!

There's a thread somewhere around here about Seattle card shops. Might want to search that one out.

Welcome back to the hobby. Perhaps we crossed paths at one of the Seattle area collector shows.
