    Great stuff! Thanks for the memories! I especially love the 'Hobby Sizzlers' section. Boy, I forgot that Kevin Seitzer was 'hot' at one time! How about Todd Van Poppel on the cover, he was the next coming...

    Yeah, PA , it does stink that happened to the Henderson....I dont even remember how that happened. Oh well...I think the Ryan is my favorite of them all.
    If I had those professionally cut could they be graded? Cut just outside of the borders, of course.

    Great pics. I think some of those traded sets ('87 Topps $8, '85 Fleer $11) would cost less now. Then again, so would an '87 Seitzer or an '85 Eric Davis. And I didn't know Tuff Stuff went back that far. I only knew it as a large glossy magazine circa 1990.

    I have all of my Becketts going back to May 1988 with a few before that. Even though they take up a large bulky box, I don't know if I could ever get rid of 'em. It's too much fun to read Tommy Wheatly's Kid's Korner column!

    I used to *LOVE* that old Baseball Card Hobby Report. I would read and reread and reread and reread all of my issues as a kid. LOVED it. Wouldn't mind having all of those again...

    I remember that ad for the Willie, Mickey and the Duke autographed litho in the premier issue of BHCR.

    The only reason I didn't buy it at the time was I didn't like the fact that the artist portrayed them in the wrong order (Duke, Willie and Mickey) imageimageimage

    Collecting old hobby papers provides a good nostalgia trip. I started collecting cards around the time that Frank & Vivian Barning's Baseball Hobby News became the standard. Classified ads by Keith Olbermann can be found in some hobby papers from the early '70s.
