02-04-2023, 09:13 PM Went to TriStar in Houston today
Didn't fair much better than when I went in June 2021. Parking $20 + tax (they went to credit card only and cars were backed up) and another $20 to walk in the door. Pretty much went in expecting to only buy singles and that is what I did. Barely spent more than what it cost to park and enter.
RJ, I couldn't pass this one up for you just because of the name: 1960 Topps Hopalong Cassady, 1955 Heisman winner from Ohio State U.
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

I might actually have that one! I’ll have to look, but either way thank you for thinking of me!

It is in great shape for 63 years old. The back is green so you see some white along the edges, but overall very nice. Guessing he was given that nickname from the western character. Slightly different spelling. Loved some of the nicknames from back then.
I got a handful of Redskins from the 60's for $1 and $2 also all in great shape (Topps and Philadelphia). Before my time, but what the heck. Was a little disappointed that they were only worth $1.50 and $2.50. Would have thought 60 year old cards would have a little better value than that. But still glad that I bought them.

LMK if you do have it. I can always send it to Speak if it is something he would want.

Speak, it is yours if dogger is so inclined.
Dogger, I truly appreciate you thinking of me.
It has been a rough go for me as of late and I really appreciate the gesture.
My pleasure RJ.
Speak, would you like the card?
