That is what makes the hobby community great my friend. It is fun to give to friends!

stay inside play with cards!

Cold out there today?

Here is Marley's 56 Topps set needs, lots of HOFers on there, but we are in it for the long haul.

She isn't too concerned with the condition because we can always upgrade later, but G-VG is fine. I will have to share this list in a comment, since blue sky doesn't seem to have the ability to add photos in chat.

We have 183 cards; I hoped to pick up a HOFer or two for Christmas and maybe a small stack of her commons needs. Our budget is tight this year after Hurricane Helene took out my autumn art shows. But I can spend some. I will message you.

My 11-year-old and I are building a set and have not done much lately. We need a lot of the star and HOF players though.

Roy Campanella was born 103 years ago today. Here is my display of his vintage cards. I am only missing a few, and I have almost 500 different Campy cards in all. I tried to do a video, but it was too big for this platform. I did load it on X if you follow me there.

Roy Campanella, born #OTD in 1921.

This is my Roy Campanella display, the first time I’m sharing on #CardSky and an amazing new story to share that I haven’t told yet.

The baseball on display was caught by my grandfather (a Giants fan) while on a date with my grandmother (a Dodgers fan). 1/

WOW!!!! That is an amazing find, and what a great story. Before the day is over, I will also try to post my Campy display in honor of his birthday. But I do not have the story that you do. I just like Campy's story.

I really like the Topps 206 and all of the mini cards of my PC players. I picked up this Yogi recently.

2/2
He saw it and piped up, saying, "Hey, what are they talking about?" Lindsay began to explain the rules and how they would use cameras to ensure that the call was right. He replied right away, "So Jackie would have been out?" She replied, "Yeah, Grandpa, Jackie would have been out."

Yogi never minced words about this play. Lindsay told me a story about when he was in a nursing home, and his mind was going. However, baseball was the one thing that could bring him back. Lindsay was watching the MLB network as they were announcing the new Instant Replay rules. 1/2

Love this shot of Yogi and Campy, my two favorite catchers.
