Nice collection! I picked up this Japan World Boxing Pernell Whitaker premium yesterday, very difficult to find unless you have the right connection.

Come for the sports talk, stay for the cards!

Cards drew me here but the personalities keep me returning for more.

@doubledragon is boxing, @perkdog likes old school football, @dallasactuary is working a nice ‘69 Topps set.

The rest? Gimme some info!

@jay0791 - we do what we do.

Feel like we collect the same stuff 😉

Agreed - young and smiling.

Some collectors view the ‘36 GP’s as a complete set but Joe, Bobby Doerr and a few other cards are considered by others to be a separate and distinct 1937 set as the cards were almost certainly issued in 1937.

I'm working on collecting the same ol' chit.

I never get tired of it.

I picked this up last night for dirt cheap on ebay, I love the foreign language sportscaster cards. I always wondered what the 1970s version of George Foreman would look like up against the 1980s version of Mike Tyson, two of the hardest hitters in history trying to destroy eachother.
