Collecting all Topps Baseball base sets from 1956 to present. If I have something on my ForSale/Trade list that you need and you have nothing on my Wantlist, I can sell those cards at a very reasonable price, just please make an offer, don't make me do all the work!.
VAR's: If it's important to you to get a specific variation in a trade, please let me know so I can be sure I have the correct one for you.
Effective 9/1/2025 I will only trade/ship/mail within the US (with a very few exceptions...you know who you are!).
Health Issues: In remission from Esophageal Cancer, had Esophagectomy (removed my esophagus and stomach, made new parts out of my intestines, put my new "stomach" into my chest). Now I have a few eating issues but I'll take what I can get. I occasionally have "stretches" done to my new esophagus so I can swallow food better. I get infusions of iron as needed for anemia. I've had reconstructive surgery on my neck, six times repairing/replacing discs in my back, had both elbows rebuilt, and both hands (nerves and/or tendons repaired/replaced)...and more surgeries to come! All that damage was from running my own logging/firewood business for 32+ years, just beating the s**t out of my body. Due to the long term side effects of the drugs used to put me to sleep for the 30+ surgeries I've had, I have a very limited ability to remember things. I'm a proud veteran (USMC), small farmer (30 #$@#ing chickens as of right now), part time logger & firewood dealer.
In July of 2021 I lost my wife of 50 years to lung cancer (did I say that I hate cancer?). This site and it's members became a lifesaver and a great distraction for me so that I could get through the many rough periods of my life. So that I can continue to be an active member on this site without worrying about memory issues, my BFF, Mary, has pretty much taken over most of the actual data input and trade manager duties. I still love to trade though and really enjoy the interaction with the members on this site. I actually NEED this site...it helps me with some of the "other" issues I have. Thanks to the many members who have interacted with us so far, I hope we can do more...send me some Vintage trades!
