My son and grandson came in for a weekend visit. My boy finally decided to take home his baseball card collection that we have been storing for years in 5 hugh plastic tub containers. When he got home he calls and told me he found LT rookie card, also 5 baseball cards from 1956, which had to be from my collection. I asked if any big names on those 5. One name stuck with me, Joe Skiba. Didn't a Joe Skiba work for the Giants some time ago. I wonder if it's a relation.
Nice way to bond. She is a hockey player, so she like to collect hockey cards exclusively and it's a great way to learn about the sport, the players, stats, etc.
the bad news is she's always looking for Bruins players and I hate the Bruins, but all good otherwise, lol.
in a graded Near Mint 8 its worth 35 dollars
Ungraded it would fetch about 15 dollars...
I never collected for "profit" and I'm sure these cards are not very valuable, but they're very cool to look at. I have a bunch of the later players (including LT rookies, Bavaro, Simms, Strahan, maybe even up to Eli), but these are my favorites to look at the once every few years I look at them.
