Hey, all. I inherited my Dad's collection, he passed late last year. He was a Phillies collector, so I am now taking on the task of trying to finish out his Phillies Collections and keep it going for my kids.
Specifically, Topps base set.
I'm hoping to find some folks to make some trades with and keep adding to my collection. I have worked out a few trades, but most of what I have isn't desirable.
If anyone is interested in trading, let me know!
I'm still getting all my stuff into the database, there is still a lot to go!

Sorry to read about your father, but welcome to the hobby. And, welcome to TCDb... it's a great place to distract yourself from the day-to-day.
Hopefully we can find a trade sometime.

Sorry about your dad, but your aim to keep his memory alive through cards is a noble one. May you and your kids be blessed in that endeavor.
Someone wants your extras, so don't discount that because you're not getting bites. As much as collectors rant about the overproduced eras, I still trade quite a few of them - and even have them on my Want List, too.

Any specific years you want? I have a ton of cards from 1980-1993 but not many recent cards.

I have a lot of wants in that era, for sure! My dad did finish up complete sets in a few of those years, but not all.

My condolences on your father's passing. We have no matches. I just wanted to point out your father was a lucky man to have someone in his life to carry on a project like this in his honor! Good luck!

Hi,
Sorry to hear about your dad. Welcome to the hobby. If you’re not a Phillies fan, but a fan of another team you should collect what you like and finish some of your dads sets.
