RE: A Pickup So Special, It Deserves It's Own Thread!
Congrats!!!
Growing up and being from a small town in Canada I hardly seen any older basketball just hockey and some baseball. I will never forget when I saw my first MJ fleer rookie in person, I was so excited. It had red ink on the back corner but I still had to have it. I traded a lower grade Topps Bobby Orr rookie for it which in hindsight was a terrible deal for me in todays market. However I was super excited and still have it in my pc.
Collecting Vintage OPC and older oddball and food issues as well as Maple Leafs.
Enjoy the hobby at it's purest form, treat it as you did as a kid.

I had left it like that the same as my white whale forever- but simply couldn't pass this opportunity up!
