Waiting for Christmas
It has been at least 10 years since I bought any cards. Since I recently have started going though my cards, I have gotten the itch to collect again. I got these at a local retailer on sale for $15 apiece.
Have to wait until Christmas to open, as they are both now wrapped and under the tree. Will post scans if I pull anything spectacular. Merry Christmas everyone.
Collecting the following players:
Steve Garvey (177 different cards) --Willie McCovey (168 different cards) --Will Clark (199 different cards) --Mel Ott (132 different cards) --Willie Mays (28 different cards)
=Currently collecting vintage tobacco and tea cards as well as Topps Allen and Ginter=

Oh man did it. I was ready to go out and buy another box or two after I opened the last pack!

Sorry, but that is the first and only Koufax that I have ever owned.
