Yep I do I have so much I dont know what to do, like the little old lady who lived in the shoe..

I have a whole safety deposit DRAWER filled out a bank with complete sets from 1970 - 1983 baseball, football, basketball (not all years) and hockey (not all years) all in indestructo boxes per year per sport per set..

Costs me $180 per year to rent it been p-aying it since 1984.. Its getting time to move it maybe I should buy a fireproof for my house....

You probably could have had one by now at that rate per year.

Make sure you get one with the big spinning wheel though - just for the proper visual effect of aceecards' "safe of cards".

Ill try , I am just to inpatient to wait for pictures to load I have dial up at home and with two daughters it is getting tuff to even get computer time.

I promise either here or my website as soon as I can.

I am going thru some chiroparactic treatments which has severly cut into my hobby time..Plus the pain of setting and sorting is extreme.

Hopefully your current treatments will improve things. Get better!

I hate doctors.

to briefly describe. I have had a pain in my left tookus and left leg all summer. On Monday I finally went to my primary doctor who ordered MRI and XRAY. To goto the hospital will cost me $1,000 deductible. so I went to chiropractor yesterday. cost me $250.00 but they still cant find anything.

Now I have to drive back there today for lunch hour so they can put in some kind of contraption that will basicly fold me in half to check my hip joints.

I hate when you spend time and money and they have no definitive answers. Makes you worried and frustrated. Makes you wonder how many worthless tests they run on others

Ace: You certainly have a diverse collection. Fun for folks like me to read about what you have. I've found lots of Marilyn Monroe cards, but they are from the early '90s rather than from her actual hey-day.

And, too bad about your health concerns. We all have them as we get to be old fogies (I'm 40, does that count?) and it sounds like you are handling it well. I share your leery nature regarding doctors and our health "industry" in general. Anyway, good luck to ya.

Just an update to the chiroprator.

I give up. He can find or isolate the pain either.

He folded me in hald and tied me in knots the other day all to no avail.

And another update. I am going to try and post some pictures of some vintage stuff this weekend. Again the Monroe stuff is sealed so there is not much to show but...
