Home Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum

New to forum, wanted to introduce myself

Hello all. As my message title states, I am new to the forum, but not to PSA. I have been a member for 5-6 years now, but this is my first time getting involved in the forum. I have read most of the member posts for years and have found them very helpful and informative. I am a lifelong baseball card collector and St. Louis Cardinal fan. I mainly collect Stan Musial, Ken Boyer, and Ted Simmons cards (only the Cardinal Years), but also collect some Phillies cards for my father as well. I am also a member of the Set Registry - I thought that it was a cool way to keep track of my cards and see how my collection stacks up with others. I also buy on ebay - and sometimes sell doubles of my cards, non- cardinals or cards that I have upgraded.

Some of my personal best PSA grading experiences include getting a PSA 10 Pat Burrell Stadium Club Rookie on my second submission (it remains my only 10 from a personal submission). I have also received a PSA 9 on a 1968 Topps Steve Carlton, 1972 OPC Steve Carlton, and a few 1961 Topps Commons. I have also received PSA 8's on a 1958 Musial AS, 1959 Musial, 1962 Musial stamp Panel, 1963 Musial Peel-off, 1964 Boyer Stand-up, 1972 Topps Aaron, 1961 Mantle WS HR to name a few. Lastly, My favorite Cardinal that I actually got to see play is Ted Simmons - which is why I collect him. It still hurts to think about the day he was traded. Hope I did this right and to contribute to future discussions.
