Question about storage
Question about storage
I have been thinking about my collection and trying to decide what to do with some of the cards. Basically what I have now, is...
any star player that is not a Rangers goes into 2-row shoeboxes filed alphabetically. I don't put them into my ORG and just filed them behind their name card. They're just in there, not in a penny sleeve or anything.
The range of players in this box are all the way from Gary Carter, Rickey Henderson era players to Buster Posey, Evan Longoria, etc. With some of the guys like Griffey, Henderson, Bonds, Bagwell now retired and likely not getting many more cards in the future, I want to move them out of the stars box to make room for more players.
But alot of the cards of the older players are from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s. One of the questions I need answered is should I keep them? They're guys like Ozzie, Cal Ripken, Nolan Ryan and those type players in baseball and Marino, Montana, Rice, etc. in football.
I want to move all of them out of my current stars box. Should I just put them in my commons box (since they're from the era where the cards will never be worth anything)? Or should I put all of those players into other boxes filed or put in there neatly and into a closet. Also have been gathering the products like UD Classics, Sweet Spot Classics that has some of the past starts and got players from those sets too.
I am listing the guys who will be moving out of the current stars box. If you think they are not worthy of hanging on to (remember, about 60% of the majority of these cards are from 1985-1994). Which would you keep? Which would you toss into the commons box? I have some rookies of some of these players, too.
