I like using the TCDB to whittle down my doubles box. I'll pick a set, and search for other collectors that need cards from that set. The cards I ask in return aren't necessarily from sets I'm working on, but I'll often find some Red Sox cards I need. That was the case this time around when I proposed a swap to Clay. He sent some needed Red Sox my way:
I really enjoy those Conlon Collection cards - the pictures are fantastic and you often get a peek into the game's history that you don't normally have a chance to read about.
Favorite Card: How can I not pick a big athlete nicknamed "Baby Doll"?
Thanks for the trade, Clay!
Sweet Baby Doll!
ReplyDeleteEverybody loves Conlon... everybody!
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to add new Red Sox cards in exchange for dupes. I'd do that a lot more often if I had any more space in my binders.
ReplyDeleteI love Conlons. When I began collecting in 93, these cards were everywhere and cheap! It took me 20 years to appreciate them and cost me a lot more.
