As another way to get to know everyone better, please share a little about your collecting interests.
Here's mine:
Overall:
Almost any sports cards, non-sports cards and collectibles
Players:
Kenyon Martin cards and collectibles
Roberto Clemente cards and collectibles
Teams:
Pittsburgh Pirates cards and collectibles
Pittsburgh Steelers cards and collectibles
I also collect cards from any NBA players who played at the Univ. of Cincinnati.
-Bob
Overall:
- Pre-1930 tobacco cards that have eye-appeal and is within my financial reach
Players:
- affordable Mike "King" Kelly cards and collectibles (his stuff is PRICEY, ranging anywhere from hundreds of dollars to thousands)
- any Reggie Jackson cards and collectibles that deal with the 1977 World Series, specifically Game 6
Teams:
- 1977 Yankees
- I have obtained a team card of the 2004 Boston Red Sox; I am not a Boston fan, but I wanted it so it would remind me that "all things are possible when given enough time and patience"
Other:
- thoroughbred collectibles (need a 1978 Preakness Program to complete my 1978 Triple Crown set)
My collecting interests are probably more philosophical than anything ...
I'd say my current collection is 85% baseball 10% non sport (Star Wars, vintage non-sport trading cards) and 5% sports other than baseball (hockey/football/basketball)
I've always loved the thrill of opening a new pack - no matter what it was .. and the potential of getting that 1:1000 insert card that would make your return on investment so worthwhile.
I also like trying to assemble vintage sets, sport and non-sport, for the least money possible. I like the idea of "re-uniting" cards in a set and wondering who has owned them over the years .. some 12 year old buying some bubble gum in the 50's .. and it surviving in a suburban attic for years. And on the same note I'm probably unlike most collectors today in the fact that I like lesser grade vintage cards .. they have more character. My best find was an ebay auction for '61 topps cards at $20 that had literally been through the bicycle spokes .. but included the Maris,Mays and lots of high numbers.
If there's any modern set that I'm trying to complete it's the 2001 Topps Baseball Gold (#'d to 2001). It represents the year I got seriously back into card collecting ,the golden anniversary of the brand of my childhood, and something about the knowledge that only 2001 sets could every be reassembled .. and the number diminishes each time another collector in Japan frames the Ichiro rookie card on his wall or another kids' mom throws out the shoebox with the lucky results a few packs of cards bought at 7-11 for $.99 each.
The first player I collected all cards from was Bob Watson - because of his guest appearance in the Bad News Bears movie and the "Let them Play" chant at the Astrodome. Who knew that he would be the MLB disciplinarian .
I was also a Willie Randolph fan growing up .. and will one day collect all his cards .. and now that he's manager of the mets there will be all those manager cards and team checklists to find ...
I know .. pretty odd .. but I like it .. and one day I will trade or sell off the lot for pretty cheap and just keep a few "prized" possessions .. because I hate lugging them around whenever I move ... Ha! I got stopped by airport security last time I flew home to England after staying at my dad's in NJ because I had about 100 cards from the 50's in top loaders loose in my carry-on. The security gaurd kept calling over his friends to check out the players .. and I nervously let them go through them all ... good thing there was no one there from customs
-Jim
I collect mostly Nascar cards especially Jeff Gordon and Hendricks motrosports teammates. I have been getting some packs of football/baseball/hockey...just to see what i get. I really would like to get some of those 1 for 1's of famous americans....they are seem like a great set and i hope they continue with the american greats.
My order...#1-NFL-2.NHL-3.MLB-4.NBA-Racing, etc
I also collect with a nostalgic mind-set, but really like the quality of the modern issues as well.
I really enjoy the photo's on the cards EX: I have a 1999 Ultra #68 Favre displayed on my shelf, so I guess BV really isn't an issue...Lol
One thing I don't do is chase the hot players..I pretty much look for the diamond in the ruff type players(all sports) or just pick up a lower-end Rc. of the Gotta have's, like Ichiro, Pujols, LeBron, etc..
And like jrlenox..I'd never trade my 1960's-70's flip cards. They stayed in in my pocket & in rubber bands most of the season
Eventually I'd like to focus on the Pinnacle,Aurora,Pacific, and perhaps Ionx prism types of cards...When the sun hits those cards they GLOW!! Plus with the prices for HOF G/U(even some auto's) I will always pick them up..Just haven't decided what direction to take with these.
Man, I guess I collect a little of everything.
I collect football and baseball exclusively.....I was raised around football and baseball my whole life and never really developed an interest in NBA or non-sports collections. I have, however, recently started putting together some golf cards since the golf course became my home away from home and work. As far as specific players are concerned, I've always been interested in any Cowboy cards and Steeler cards from the 70's. As big as the rivalry was back then, I still managed to grow up as a Cowboys fan in the NFC and a Steelers fan in the AFC. My favorite piece of baseball memoribilia that I have actually had nothing to do with sports until I got it signed. I had the opportunity to meet Nolan Ryan in Round Rock TX right after the new baseball stadium for the "Ryan Express" was finished. I had him sign the back of one of my business cards from the police department that I was working for at the time. I have that business card framed with a picture of Nolan Ryan hanging in the den and I think it is probably my most prized collectors item. I've sent a few cards to different teams in the past and have received some back......most of the ones I have gotten back were from obscure players such as Steve Avery with the Braves and David Nied with the Rockies. I've got a few others back but those are the ones that come to mind. The new "auto" inserts and memoribilia inserts are interesting to me now, especially since they are getting easier to come by. My goal is to one day pull a "1/1" but so far the best I've been able to do is two "1/25" cards.
I collect hockey
Specifically:
(1) Colorado Avalanche base/parallels/inserts/autos. Trying to get a card of every player to ever play for the Av's pictured in the colorado sweater.
(2) Hockey pucks from Colorado teams past and present.
(3) Commemorative hockey sticks (full-size)
(4) The occassional card of Boston Bruins defensemen
(5) Occassional card of NHL rookies
I don't collect the "GU" stuff (sigh , all that great stuff torn to shreds...)
I am 100% in to my baseball cards. I collect mainly Oriole cards as well as their minor league teams. Last year I decided to start putting 1 set of a Topps product together. That last one year, I guess being deployed for 6 months put a damper on me completing the set. This year I am putting 4 sets together. How I went from 1 to 4 I am not sure!! Baseball cards are the only hobby I really have. Its also my stress reliever at some times.
I'm a set builder of Topps baseball sets from 1975 thru 1995. I'm also working on a 1967 baseball set. I have about 10 more cards I need on that. I've been working on that set for about 10 years. Some times I think I'm getting too picky. I'm also working on a 1975-76 Topps hockey set and 1979-80 Topps basketball set and a 1971 Topps football set.
I also collect pre-war cards of sports players named Hogan. I have about 25 or so from different sets. I find them mostly on Ebay and card shows. I don't get to many shows. I like the bigger shows, there's not many around any more.
I have some newer cards that I use for trading from all 4 sports. I still like vintage cards the most. I'm 47 years old and live in the Boston Mass area.
Reading through these again, we've got quite a mix of collectors already represented. Nice to see.
Also, welcome to the site, finestkind! Glad to have you here.
-Bob
I didn't see this thread, so I better write something.
I collect these in order:
NFL(Matt Hasselbeck, David Pollack, David Greene)
MLB(Atlanta Braves, David Ortiz)
NBA(Emeka Okafor)
Just a quick note to all our new members to share your collecting interests here if you like.
-Bob
hey bob, i got some kmart cards if youre interested. just pm me.
i collect any KG, wade, lebron, amare, duncan, tmac or griffin card, btw. just pm me if u got a deal in mind. thanks.
I collect mainly Hockey and Football, and very little baseball.
No favorite players in any sport. I like all the superstars, but I also really admire the guys who do it all and do not get noticed. Troy Brown of the Patriots comes to mind from this year's football, when he played both defense and offense.
I am mainly starting to just focus on RCs, and vintage cards when I can find them affordably. I love to complete sets when I start a product (usually just the base set anymore). I like vintage players game used cards, in the beleif that there will not be as many of their jerseys to cut up for cards. Those jerseys also seem to have a nostalgic texture (tan or grey "white" uniforms, they look used! LOL) when compared with modern day jersey cards.
If anyone has vintage hockey (50's to 70's) they do not want let me know.
Good luck if you are pack busting!
Hi everyone,

Autos of exciting rookies!
I also loved the idea of getting movie stars and world leaders and rock gods event worn stuff and autos!
Wouldnt it be cool to get a concert worn Sgt Peppers outfit from Live 8!!
1970s Pittsburgh Steelers - I need Swanny, Stallworth, Webster, Holmes, Russell, Ham, Lambert, white and Bleier
I need the following GU Baeball Walter Johnson and Christy Mathewson
I like getting autos in person but here lately I got everybody who comes around on cards already. Gibson, Musial,O Smith Brock FB Steven Jackson etc and on Balls and on cards.
Maybe the need to arrange tours with new guys other than the national. Like Roethlisberger or Mannings.
Anyone else want to share their overall collecting interests here?

Just started collecting cards, so i'd have to say I'm collecting Ed Belfour, Dan Cloutier, and any current Leafs players. Also interested in very nice RC's and patches.
Hi all. New here, wanted to share my interests.
I have always been a collector of Hockey cards starting around '79-'80. I remember buying packs of Gretzky's RC year for $.25.
Now that I've aged myself somewhat...
I love the feeling of buying boxes and just bustin' away... brings me back to simpler times. Even when I do not get the pulls I was looking for it's still fun.
At one time I was 80% hockey, 10% baseball, 10% football. Now it's all hockey. So I do have some other sports to trade as well.
I have focused my collection on Steve Yzerman cards. And with buying all those boxes for all these years, I have much to trade for Stevie Y.
I have taken some years off here and there, but..." evertime I think I'm out, they pull me back in..."
Nice to be back, and I look foward speaking with/dealing with you!
Rob
Anything featuring or related to Steve Garvey. I offer this challenge to any members, new and old:
Offer me anything Garvey related that I don't have...as long as it's not one of the brand new products (although I will want those, as needed, as well)...with a reasonable offer and we will strike up a deal.
Anyone who can come up with a card or related collectible item I still need, I will offer a prize. This excludes newspaper photos, articles, etc. I am looking for regular issue and oddball cards and similar collectibles (although, once again I will take anything I don't have). For example, the 1972 Topps Venezualen Garvey stamp. A short wantlist is featured on my ebay "me" page. My ebay ID is...yes you guessed it, mrmopar.
I also collect Dodgers in general and will trade team for team with people. I'd also take FB Raiders and Vikings in team for team trades.
Lastly I collect signed trading cards. Any sport, just about any players. I prefer older cards (vintage if you will). I especially like the Topps All Rookie Team cards (trophy) and Brooklyn Dodgers.
This is not inclusive of my collecting habits, but those are my top 3 focuses. I have collected all 4 major sports at times, plus some others and non-sports to a small degree.
Oh, one other thing...I love oddball items. If you have something unique, odd shaped, unknown to you, whatever and you want to ID it or get rid of it, let me know. I might be able to help! Happy Trading.
Hi, I am new to these boards. I collect Baseball and Football cards with a concentration on Yankees and Jets cards. I collect Chad Pennington Cards (GU, auto and base) Yankee and Jets GU and autos as well. I am also working on building the 1971 Topps baseball set (just started that one, only 2 cards), the 1981 Topps baseball, 2005 Topps Baseball, 2005 Topps Heritage baseball and 2005 Topps Football.
If you have a list on the 05 Topps Heritage send me a PM and I'll see what I have for your set needs.
My main collecting intrest..are,...
Houston ASTROS-mostly Craig Biggio..but all others also
New Orleans Saints--Mostly GU or Autos
Frank Thomas--All of his cards
Hi!
I mainly collect AI patch cards and autos of Desmond mason and Tony allen though I wouldn't mind some dwyane wade cards at the moment.
My new collecting love: 2001 Private Stock Deltha O'Neal GU cards
I'm a Bengals fan (because of the uniform colors ) I was their fan back when they were in the Super Bowl against the 49ers. And a big blow was struck when we lost Tim Krumrie early in the game.
So now, going back to my favorite childhood team, I found a player (and card) that has eye appeal (at least to me) and affordable to collect. While Carson and Chad get all the attention, I found a league leader on the other side of the ball. Two-thirds of the season has gone by and Deltha is the leading interceptor. I used to collect Dave Klinger, but his career is null.
#1 - Will Clark cards
#2 - Autographs, mainly in-person (always nice to have a story with it).
#3 - Pressed pennies (the ones you smoosh in machines that imprint images onto the smooshed penny).
Hello, My name is Jeff. (daze_fan). some of you know me from other sites, and some of you may know/remember me as J.E.LEW from the old Sports card forum. Yes, I was a moderator there for the first year of it's existence, and the !st Mod along with Iggy. well, times change and so do people, ( some for the worse!)
I've been collecting for 30+ years, and am a former shop owner in the mid-late 90's. I always saw myself as a collector first then a hobby dealer. I dont buy any new product anymore, and have been basically trading on-line for the last 3+ years with the old stock from my shop. lol.
I do buy a pack or two here and there, but most of the cards I have from 2001 til now are from trades or single card purchases on Ebay or from other collectors for my Personal collection.
This may change as my son is starting to get interested in cards and sports a little more, so we'll see.
My main collecting interest is Hockey and Vintage before 1975.
(hockey up to 1988)But I do collect a few Individual Players also.
John Elway ( I'm a life long Broncos fan)
Eric Daze ( hence, my screen name)
Michael Barrett ( My wife actually collect him)
Bob Probert ( one of my favorite all-time hockey players)
My favorite teams are the Cubs,Blackhawks,Broncos and Chicago Wolves(AHL).
I'm not a basketball fan at all, but I do have several nice basketball cards in my PC (Maravich, Bird/magic Rc)
I do have an interest in Vintage Basketball cards from before 1971.
The Oldest cards by sport I have are: baseball, A few T206 w the best being the Addie Joss Portrait.. Hockey, I have several 1933 OPC series a cards.. basketball, 1948 Leaf Eddie Ehlers, and in Football 1948 Leaf Marlin Harber.
Not much compaired to many other collections that amass tons of pre-war cards, but I'm happy with them.
This is'nt my life, like some people get into it, This is a relaxing Hobby for me. I hate the Stuffy, obnoxious, greedy collector that has to flaunt every single card they get in there hands, and that have attitude where your stuff stinks, mines better. ( Idid'nt know that collecting became a race all of a sudden! I'm not made of money, I work for a living, Besides, you cant take it with you!
well, sorry for babbling, hope to make several trades here take care.
Jeff
Jeff,
Glad to have you here. Its refreshing to hear a former shop owner that knows the difference between the business and collecting sides. Good to see others who still believe in having fun with collecting. Too many people just want only the best cards they can get their hands on. BTW thats not collecting that greed. If you have any questions or problems (problems send them to me I don't bite but have 3 little boys who would) just ask.
Happy hunting and have fun!
Cool webpage, Jeff. I'd like to see scans of all your T206s.
And welcome to the forum!

Hi, I am a almost recently beginner in collecting trading cards. My goal is to try to collect as much cards as I can of players born or descendant of parents from the Dominican Republic, mainly the vintage one. For recent players my favorites are minors, first and second year cards (base, relic, auto, etc....). I collect most cards of:
Juan Marichal
Felipe Alou
Sammy Sosa
Pedro Martinez
Vladimir Guerrero
Albert Pujols
Alex Rodriguez
Manny Ramirez
As the number of players is increasing each year, I posted a web page where I list all the player I know and list their card, including those that I have in my collection and those that I want. The address is:
Collectart1959.tripod. com
I hope I can trade with anyone having cards from those players. I have a lot of card to trade both sport and nonsports and from almost all sports. Part of my inventory is being selling at sportlots, but I have much more cards that are not listed. Thanks I hope to hear from you soon. Cesar.

Hi everyone.
I have a varied assortment of cards I collect.
When I first started really getting into cards I collected mainly baseball (Ken Griffey, Jr to be exact) , then I started getting some football and even a few hockey and basketball.
Now I'm more interested in getting football than anything, but I still collect baseball as well.
As far as who I collect, I usually stick w/ RC's from Seattle (Seahawks, Sonics and M's) and then RC's who are hot, going to be hot etc.
Sometimes there is no method to my madness, other times there is.
Shaun Alexander is the #1 player I try and collect now followed by RC's and inserts of Felix Hernandez of the M's and up and coming stars who are also with my Seattle teams.
I could go on and on, but I wont.
(after reading this mess, I'm not sure that anyone will even understand it .. )
Hi i am new to this site also, i have just recently picked up card collecting again. Its been a while since i stopped collecting but i am back in the game now.
I only collect football cards, i might also trade for Lebron James cards but thats about it.
The Players i collect are:
Zach Thomas LB Miami Dolphins
Wes Welker WR Miami Dolphins
Charlie Frye QB Cleveland Browns-I just have a good feeling about him
Randy Moss Wr Oakland Raiders would also like him in vikings uniform
My tobacco phase is on hold for now. My T206 Cardinals team set is complete, as is my T206 double-breasted jacket subset.
I have moved on to collecting more contemporary cards, mostly Cincinnati Bengals team sets (base) and star players (G-U/AU). I am currently concentrating on building a Jim Breech Master set and it looks like I’ve stumbled upon a roadblock because it seems no one has those Panini stickers.
Okay... Here what I collect... I collect the following of the players list below...
- Mike Modano
- Marvin Harrison
- Stefan LeFORS
- Troy Aikman (For My Dad)
- Domonique Foxworth (New)
- Hernan Crespo (Very Hard To Get)
I also collect other as the following below
- All Broncos Player/Teams
- Dallas Stars (Some, but not a lot)
- Colorado Avalance (Some, but not a lot)
- Chelsea FC {European Club (Soccer)}
I guess that's about it for right now... And Thank You For Reading
Cody J. §
My collecting interests are 99.9% Philadelphia Flyers.
My main collection is Flyers authetic autograph cards. Past and present players, as long as they are in Flyers uniform.
I also collect Flyers game-used cards. I'm looking for 3 of each card. One with an orange swatch, one with a white swatch, and one with a black swatch.
Those are my two main interests, but I collect pretty much anything with a Flyers logo on it. McFarlanes, SLU's, Headliners, Bobbleheads, auto'd 8x10's, the list is endless!
Jeff
I collect NASCAR ONLY now and I mainly collect:
TONY STEWART
JJ YELEY
DENNY HAMLIN &
NASCAR Rookie cards from ANYONE!!!
Mostly hockey cards looking for collectable rookies and other cards but I need to know what certain cards are worth.
Ok i'll leave my mark here too....I'm collecting ALL MVP set from 98-99 to 05-06 and after if there is other...and when i say ALL it's ALL from the common to the xx/25 parallele including GU and AU but at this time i'm limiting myself to Hockey (ok it's around 9000 cards to get so i have alot of work to do only in this sport). I do some other set also as a sideline... some have named me the MVPmaniac i don't know why....
Overall:
NHL!!!
I am obsessed with th LA Kings and I have an official Kings rookie collection, from the day they came into the league (1967-68) to present.
(King draft picks and rookies only... not just any guy that played for them)
There are a total of 504 official rookies up until 2005.. and I'm still missing 3 (as I cry)
I'm also collecting all future rookies.. this year I'm chasing Parros to add to my RC collection...
I also started a Panther & Blackhawks RC collection... (I know, I know, I have issues HAHA)
Players I collect religiously:
Marcel Dionne
Dave Taylor
Luc Robitiaille
Paul Coffey
Teams:
KINGS in general: (I'm have folders & folders of base cards, inserts, game used that I will give my brother when he turns 21 - which is still 10 yeas away)
I'm more like a mother than a sister, we are 21 years apart, so my collection will go to him if he remians a Kings fan... (I hope he won't become a Dallas Stars fan, he leaves in Texas HAHA)
Well obviously im a Flyer Fan, im also a very big fan of the LA Kings... i collect Official Rookies of Young Guys i like for various reason...
i also do sets here and there, Base, Rookie, Inserts just to keep from boredom, as rookies arent always the easiest to pick up... i used to collect Gagne & Palffy(basically how i got into the kings) but i gave up the player collecting as there are just parallels of everything anymore and it makes it impossible to ever come close to picking them all up... atleast with sets and Official rookies there is a ending point to the madness...
i think i do more trading to pick up stuff for my friends than i do myself but that is half the fun... i love finding a rare card i know a friend needs just as much as do for myself...
Thanks

Jacksonville Jaguars
Florida Gators (in UF uniforms)

I have modified my collecting interests to a point over the recent months. At one time I was collecting Rangers, Cowboys, Nolan Ryan and ANYTHING THAT CAUGHT MY EYE. Now, I'm focusing mainly on certain players (Teixeira, Ryan, Young, and Nix) but still have an interest in others as time and money affords it. I've also added John Mayberry JR to my collecting interests. I don't think I'll ever change my interest in Cowboys or focus on certain players considering how crazy the trades go in the NFL....and now that there's talk of a possible strike in the 07 season...I'm going to be a lot more reserved in my approach to collecting any football.
Sports card wise I collect Soccer ones of my favourite players, then NBA ones of Kevin Garnett and other Timberwolves ones, Stephon Marbury and ex Duke players especially Shane Battier.
I also collect alot of TV show/Movies ones like the CSI's and 24, which I tend to buy boxes of. as i want the whole set
I also collect little football (soccer) figures called Microstars and other figures of players I like.
what all Stevie Y cards are you looking for? I have a good selection of them, so i may have some you need to complete your collection. Let me know, so I can look.
I think I remodified. Prewar vintage is on hold. Waiting for that one King Kelly card to surface when I have the funds. I am halfway there to getting the necessary funds.
Bengals patch cards (the logo stripe ones) are pretty attractive, at least to me. I'll see what Bengal team sets I can build for 2006. If there is an AU/GU as base, I will build that team set.

I used to go pretty heavily after sports cards, but burned out about 15 years ago, although I would not mind finishing a couple of sets. But my main focus not is non sports, primarily pre-1960, especially Pre-WWII. Within that, I am probably most interested in T cards. I am working on master sets on some of the T issues (combinations of all fronts and all backs). The biggest one of these is T59 Flags of All Nations, where I need about 2500 more examples.
Here is what I collect

Hey guys this sight was recommended to me so I figured I would give it a try, as far as collecting goes I was a pack buster of any sport for about 14 years I accumulated alot of cards but so many of them held no interest for me, at the first of the year I deceided to collect only former UGA players and Falcons, past and current. I am a huge sports fan, especially football, but I really enjoy the hobby and enjoy helping others improve their collection I just recently gave away all my cards that were not in my PC. Some people say I was crazy for doing that but I actually enjoyed it, I figured why keep these cards in boxes taking up space in my "sports room" when there are people out there that would really enjoy these cards. Well I certanly look forward to talking to each of you and possibly making a few trades that will make everyone happy. Thanks.
morrisdawg - wleocme to the site! Hope you find TCC enjoyable!
Wow, some really great reads in this thread...
My General Interests: I collect only baseball cards, currently have about 60 player collections of current stars and past hof'ers (Clemens, Kaline, I. Rodriguez, Maris, etc). But my true passion is my Jeremy Bonderman collection. I started collecting Jeremy's cards in early 2003 which was his rookie year with the Tigers. This collection started out with a single 2003 Topps Bazooka rookie card that I pulled from a pack. After looking over the info on the card I decided I'd add Jeremy to the list of players I collect. Prior to getting this first Bonderman card I knew nothing about him. I began watching the 2003 season and the more I saw Jeremy pitch the more impressed I became. By the middle of the 2003 season I had put together about 70 different cards. What started out as just an addition to my other player collections was quickly becoming an obsession.
I had now drastically slowed down on buying any other cards other than Jeremy (other than the occasional card here and there, sometimes you just can't resist the urge). My goal was/is to build the most complete Jeremy Bonderman collection in the world, the "Ultimate Bonderman Collection". I have been on a non-stop search ever since, scowering every possibility for a new card to add. Frequenting places like eBay, Beckett, Naxcom, Yahoo, various trading forums, etc.
As of June 1st, 2006 I have amassed 680 different Jeremy Bonderman cards, giving me 89% of his total cards produced. This includes: 72 different true 1/1's, 81 game-used jersey/bat cards, 104 certified autographs, 51 game-used jersey/bat autograph cards, and 15 press plates. If you'd like to see my collection check out my site in my Sig.
I was reading this thread and thought I'd add mine.
I have a unique collection and have had fun with it over the last six years.
I put together draft albums and college alumni albums.
For the draft albums, I put two cards for each draft pick (one in his college uniform and one of their rookie cards). The challenge for this has become that not all draft picks immediately produce cards. The only album close to being complete is my 1996 draft album. (as time goes on I'll be asking for help)
For my collegiate albums, I put a card of each player (in college uniform) of each roster for each year. I have a roster album for every college in Division I and have started working on Division II and III. As you could probably imagine; the challenge has been that not every player turns pro or they end up in the lesser known leagues (ie: Arena, Europe, etc.); therfore, they never have a college card produced.
God Bless Presspass and Sage Hit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
Charles

welcome to the site we have many great hockey collectors here that I am sure can help you with the steve y collection
my collection interest it mainly baseball cards.
player cards of bagwell, ripken, jeter, clemens, vlad, and brogna.
those arent the only ones but those would be at the top. others would be
smith, puckett, sandberg, mattingly...maybe a few more.
i dont collect based on price, or even how the cards look. my favorite bagwell cards are common cards, i couldnt part with them because the way he looks in the card is just indescribable. and i collect based on names. those names just pop off the page. or screen...or card. im not crazy about memorabilia, or even todays market cards. i dont have any from 2001 til today...no pujols..soriano, cabrera, whoever else might be hot...prior? or maybe he used to be. they are great fantasy sports grabs..but that is as far as my interest in them goes. i probably wont buy any new boxes to acquire any of them either..the way i look at cards today isnt the same as when i first began collecting. especially since all the GU and Auto cards are everywhere now...im taking a sort of ignorant stand on the way cards are produced today. but in my opinion the very fact that every player every where has GU cards and stuff that is guaranteed to be included in a box of cards that are priced over $200.00 is for the collector that is looking for a return on his investment through selling the cards he gets. and that to me takes all the value out of the cards you can get, and even the GU cards i could get...i just wouldnt see them as being any sort of collectors item since everyone that collects gets the same thing. its almost so over done in my opinion it waters that whole aspect down to zero...atleast for me. if you can put your mind around the idea of GU...there are cards out there valued at $10.00? or less...i mean thats ridiculous...in my opinion. ive got handfuls of inserts that come no where near the kind of significance those cards should have but are 5 times more valuable?
but i guess the last thing i can say is im not someone who will look at a bagwell GU or any astro...or any player i named above and not take interest. i just doubt i would have anything in return of the same value. but yea im just a simple card collector..looking to collect...and not for a return.
I collected cards a lot during the late 70s all the way up to the mid 90s, but I stopped about 1995 or so. At the time I collected anything and everything I could get my hands on, but just a couple of years after my first kid was born, I stopped.
Now I am back! I am going to be more picky this time around though. I am a huge Chicago Bears fan. I have been since I was 4 years old, 34 years ago, so now I am just going to focus on the Bears and that's it. I currently have just about every Bears card released from 1995 back to 1972 except for some of the inserts from the later years.
Football was always My focus, but I am going to be getting rid of all my non-bears cards and all of those cards from other sports and the oddball stuff too.
I am collecting
DEVIN HESTER!!!
I collect falcons, jeriuos norwood (2/254 of his cards), and josheph jefferson(1/24 of his cards)

I'm a big collector of players from Nebraska. There is over 475 players that have some type of card out there. There is over 10,000 diff cards that I have on my list and I know there is more. I have collected a little over 4200 of them. Most of these players are commons only a few are considered stars or semi-stars. I have been doing a lot of bulk trading taking any/all cards even doubles making it easier on you to pull them.
I' tring to do this very large job on a small budget and with little time on this hobby.
I have been asking people to e-mail me at jdbudler@msn.com because of the time. I check in the boards only on weekends and some time in the evening if I have a post or trade going on.
I have no site but do have a list of what I have to trade and Nebraska players names.
Thanks Jim

I have been collecting for almost 30 years. I have just about everything in my collection from 1910 HASSEN tobacco cards to 2007 Press pass Nascar. I try and limit what I buy now to motorsports and wrestling. My goal now is to try and complete as many of the sets that I have and to hopefully get at least one of my five kids interested in the hobby
Hello!
I have been collecting Mike Piazza cards/collectibles for around ten years now. I took a long break from collecting though during college and am trying to get back into it now. My goal is to have at least one copy of each Piazza card, and so far I'm 25% there!
Since I have not collected in a while, I don't have much to trade, but you never know. Especially if you're looking for anything from the 90s and before the big game used boom.
Team: Penguins
Player: Troy Glaus
Mario Lemieux
I just got in to collecting cards again (after about 20 years off... and I'm only 30). I was spending alot of time on some of the NFL message boards earlier this season, and someone posted a picture of a Peyton Manning card that he wanted to show off, and it got me interested again.
I'll admit, I have very little knowledge of what constitutes a "valuable" card, but I do know what sorts of cards I want and right now that's all that matters to me... I'm hoping to learn a little bit more here though. I'm interested mostly in collecting football cards, pretty much any team, but all the better if I can get my hands on some good Colts cards.
I would like to get some Pacers cards (past or present, definitely would like to get a few Reggie Miller cards), or any former Boilermaker players in the NFL or NBA.
Rule# one: :Dont take any Ian Kinsler stuff off the market.
rule# two: If you get any kinslers PM me.
I am from Michigan and I started collecting again this past year.
I have 1000's of football, basketball and hockey cards to swap (or sell).
I'd prefer to swap for baseball cards since that is the sport I like the best.
If you are interested, just let me know here or email me at paulmcall@comcast.net
Thanks.

Hey all, I'm brand new to the site and coming back to collecting cards after a "pause" of about 2 years.

Very interesting reading, I absolutely love to read about people's collections, their peculiarities, how they started collecting in the first place and what's the main fuel to their passion for collecting.
Overall:
I have tons of cards from all 4 main sports, non-sports and CCGs, so my collection is pretty varied.

Hello All,
My football card collection is pretty much limited to the Chicago Bears, I’ve been a Bear’s fan my whole life, as was my father and grandfather.
I’ve been collecting hockey cards on and off since about 1963. A few years ago I thinned the collection out. Now it just HOF’ers and future HOF’ers. I do have a lot of hockey memorabilia but it’s more of an accumulation than a collection. I started collecting pucks and schedules from Arizona (Yes, there has been hockey in Arizona since the 50’s) hockey teams few years ago.
The only Baseball, Basketball and non Bears football cards I have are just for investment or trading.
Bob
After collecting for many years growing up, I am now back into it thanks to my 11 year old. This is the first year that I have been back into cards since 91 or 92. My how things have changed!
Currently, my main interest is Hockey, then Basketball. I may dabble into baseball this year. Not really sure. Funny thing is, my main interest is in a sport that I never played (except on the street).
I was born and reared in the 'Burgh, so I am interested in all things Black and Gold (Pens, Steelers, and Pirates).
Ron
I collect Minor League top prospects both TTM and in-person. My home stadium and League is The Midwest League Burlington Bees. Anyone interested in sending me cards of Midwest Leaguers to get signed just let me know. I have gotten most all of the stars who have come through in the past 5 years.
Overall:
Mostly baseball, but a little of the other big sports too
Players:
Pete Rose cards & collectibles (thanks to my Great-Grandpa for that. RIP)
Generally late 80s, early 90s.
Teams:
Red Sox
old Blazers
I am also looking to collect cards for the University of Oregon
My collecting interests have taken a complete 180 degree turn.
Right now and this is probably what my collecting interests will be here on out (with the occasional pick up of cards I like of a player I don't collect)
Overall:
Former Notre Dame Fighting Irish football players
Players:
Mainly Brady Quinn (anything of his), but I'll trade for any other ND grad as long as their card has a picture of them in their ND uni and/or Senior bowl jsy. As long as it's related to college I'll trade for it. I'm mainly a lower end collector, because I don't have to pockets for mid to high end stuff.
Teams:
Notre Dame
(Not very much anymore, but from time to time) Dallas Cowboys
Take a guess!
I collect each years top ROOKIES from NFL & NHL
My teams are Los Angeles Kings & Oakland Raiders
but i do collect Anaheim Angels & Chicago Bears cards as well fro my kids and wife.
PLAYERS: are ovechkin,gaborik,roenick,robitaille,bledsoe,grossman,urlacher, and old vintage kings and raiders players.

Hello:
I've been collecting for over 30 years.
I was one of the original "online" member of Becket.com, and was very disappointed when the B uy/Sell/Trade area went away.
I have over 1000 different Kirby Pucket cards, and over 650 different Cal Ripken Jr. cards.
My current collecting interests are trying to get at least one rookie card of every player who has played at least one regular season game for the Minnesota Twins.
I'm also trying to collect at least one card of every player who has played in a regular season game for the Minnesota Wild. If the player did not have a Minnesota Wild card, their rookie cards suffice.
You can see some of the cards I have available at www.geocities.com/dembouski
but a better bet would be to email me at markd@undalumni.org
Thanks!
Mark D.

- christian p.
Ok, I finally wandered into this topic. Used to be a set-builder in Hockey and Football, that became real frustrating (UD especially a pain in 90s Hockey). Then I kinda switched gears to an AU collector, why I have some baseball and basketball. Stumbled on this site searching web on Starting Lineups (have some taking up too much room). Now I got the "bug" again, and wish this was around back in the 90s (hockey collectors few and far between in Oregon). I like the idea of trading things of similiar value for something I would love to have even more. Trying to get some base cards of Oregon State and even Oregon Football players since I have been out of the hobby since 1999, as I may start doing my TTM AU's again, that and I seem to be leaning towards Oregon State players (for the moment anywa).
Bucket is a work in progress, but it's starting to look kinda like one anyway
See you all around,
Dwight

Hi, everyone. Glad to be a new member of this exciting site. I have been collecting NASCAR for over 20 years and kind of got a little bored with it, so now i am mainly focusing on baseball. My main interest are the Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Indians.Yes, i know its weird to pull for two teams in the same division, but there spring training complexes are both within 15 minutes from my house. I have grown to know many of the players from both teams, and there for feel like I have somewhat of a connection with them.
As far as sets go I'm currently trying to get all of the 2006 topps updates and highlights game used all-star jersey cards. I currently have 10/62 of the set. I decided on this set because i really liked the look of the cards and i had a good start from several blaster box pulls.
The players i prefer to collect are Kenny Rgers, Curtis Granderson, Austin Kearns, Pudge, Josh Barfeild, Dale Earnhardt S.R. & J.R., David Ruttiman, Ryan Garko, Justin Verlander, Andrew Miller, Grady Sizemore, and Any H.O.F. players (as does everyone..lol..).
I am looking foreward to being a productive member of this site for many years to come, thanks.

Hey all, I am new to this forum and interested in pretty much all baseball cards, but mostly 2007 topps at the moment. Hpe to do some trading on this site. Happy Holidays, Brian.
Hi all new here- I collect mostly vintage stuff but I have some current guys I collect as can be seen in my sig.
My #1 Priority right now is 1964 Topps any condition. If I get it build then I can upgrade it later
Hi everyone, I'm a newb to this realm. I am attempting to learn how this site functions but as far as my collecting interests go: I'm currently attempting to put together collections of Gary Trent and Brandon Hunter (two former Ohio U Bobcats) I am also gathering a smaller collection of nice Patrick Willis cards from this year in football.
I've collected cards since around 8 years old but lost nearly everything about two years ago in a fire. Thus my collection is now severely smaller but I still enjoy this hobby as much as I did when my best card was a Ken Griffey Jr. Donruss Elite card numbered out of 5000 in 1992 that I got in a 50cent pack of cards from a local grocery store.
I'm currently searching for a few of Gary Trent's rarer parallels and a few rookies that seem impossible to find.
Primarily are his topps redemption rookie card not the #11 redemption card but the actual redeemed Trent card, Gary Trent 95/96 finest refractor rc, his skybox premium lottery exchange card (don't wanna open my sealed set), also 95/96 electric court gold Gary Trent rc.
I don't think Trent had any game used memoribillia cards other than redemption cards out of signature rookie for a variety of different items, but if anyone knows of any please let me know. I'm also interested in any Gary Trent printing plates or 1/1 cards that came out in his later years.
Brandon Hunter is somewhat easier to find cards of seeing as he is a more recent player but if anyone has the Cyan or Black 04/05 bowman draft picks and stars printing plates these would make a complete spectrum for me of this particular one.
Thanks as this is one of my first posts, my trade cards will mostly be out of recent NFL products from 2006 and 2007 but it may be a while till I can figure out the posting of pictures and all the specifics of how to do things right on this site.
Wlecome aboard Todd...good luck with finding the remaining Trent cards!
I enjoy collecting basketball cards first of all. Football and baseball follow closely behind in my interest level. I enjoy memorabilia cards, auto's are fun to get as well.

I have been collecting cards since 1983 when my son was born. I figures I would start a collection for him. The only problem was I was the one interested in cards. ( He decided he would rather play basketball and football, not collect cards.) I tried my hand at card shows from 1988 to 1993. It was a great way to collect what I wanted. While everyone was running around trying to make money I was busy buying and trading to add to my collection. Did not make a cent, but I ended up with all kinds of great Cards. I collected basketball in those early days, But I ended up with all kinds of cards and memorabilia. After 1993 I only collected basketball. I would be willing to trade some older cards for newer basketball cards. If any one needs any football, baseball, or basketball let me know, I would see if I have what you need. I will try to post some of my collection if I ever get it inventoried.

Hiya all, and I'd like to also say hi to Bob and thanks for the warm welcome.
Well I seem to be a little left of the centre to everyone here, being that my card collections are all movie related. My collection, although small compared to some of ya'll, is my pride and joy, and is as follows;
The Crow (First movie) - Complete set
The Crow - City of Angels - Complete set
T2 - Complete set
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (The movie) - Complete set
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (The cartoon movie/series) - Complete set
I am definitely a hockey and football set collector.
HOCKEY
I am working at finishing all the OPC hockey sets from 1970-71 (when I was born) to 1974-75. I have 1975-76 to 1992-93 OPC complete.
From 1992-93 til present, I just pick the OPC or Topps set and sometimes another set or 2 that catches my eye and try to complete those as well.
It's the short prints and inserts that are mostly what I am missing in various sets. However, I value the base set as much as any SP's (And MUCH MORE affordable!)
FOOTBALL
Same style - starting with working on TOPPS sets from 1980 on to present.
Autographs
I also am trying to get a ONE certified auto of every NHL player that has been released. By that I mean if I get a 2000-2001 Ray Bourque Auto, I don't need any more from other years. Just one from each player that has one released.
PS - I still need a Gretzky, Yzerman and a Roy. Sigh
TOTAL - 912 Different auto's so far.
Collect any thing from the following 3 teams.
Toronto Maple Leafs
Quebec Nordiques
Buffalo Bills
Thanks for sharing and welcome to TCC!
It looks like you are doing a superb job with your hockey autograph collection; 912 total autographs is amazing! Good luck with the "tough" players!
Hi, I'm new here.
I collect any stuffs but mostly trading cards related to Shaquille O'Neal, Dwight Howard and Dwyane Wade.
I also collect Auto Focus glass autographs of players I like. Doesn't matter what year they are in as long as I like the, I'll trade/buy them.

2008 Topps Series 1
2007 Topps Chrome White Refractor set.
I do not have a want list for 2008 Topps Series 1, yet I have most of the cards needed. I have a have list for 2007 Topps Chrome White Refractors. If you have any let me know. I will try to update you guys on the sets I am working on.
Out of football I am working on:
2007 Topps Total base set
2007 Score base set.
I am not picking up the football stuff until football season.
I collect only some players....hometown favorites as they might be, all are former Detroit Pistons.

Hopefully one day I can have a collection of one of the many great kids I've had an opportunity to coach. Having coached Girls Softball for 5 years, and Girls & Boys Basketball teams for 2 years, I just hope that each and every kid had a great time and learned something. The ultimate would be hearing some kid mention his old coach as an inspiration.
Hello all! I'm fairly new here, but trying to get my feet wet.
I collect Topps baseball sets, specifically the 'regular' yearly set and it's update/traded and the Heritage sets. I'm 3 2003 cards away from having the Heritage collection from 2001-2007, and I'm about 30 cards away from finishing this year's Heritage set to rest. The Heritage sets were the cards that got me back into collecting cards after about 15 years away from the hobby. I'm buying the Topps sets I don't have in my collection, but I'm starting with the sets that end in the current year, for example in 2008 I need the 1998 and 2008 sets, I've got the 1988 and 1978, and if I hit the lottery, I'll go for a 1968 set. Next year, I have the 1989 set, so I'll look for a 1979 and 1999 set, and grab the 2009 set. If I don't categorize my wants, I'll be all over the place.
My main hobby is genealogy and family history.
I collect cards of two of my cousins: baseball player Damon Sublett and soccer player Brandi Chastain.
If you have any cards of these two, I would be interested in buying them all directly, through PayPal.com or some other method.
(I also collect other materials related to the Sublett-Chastain family, but those are the two big athletes in the family. Other than those of my blood relatives, I do not collect baseball cards in general.)
