    I used to watch him with my Grandfather in Brooklyn. Pops was a fan of wrestling, boxing and the Mitch Miller Show.

    TCZ Coins - Link the Ink - Week 13

    OK, the exception could be made for any guy (no pun intended) who prints his signature.

    TCZ Coins - Link the Ink - Week 13

    That's not all that surprising. I vote that the sig must contain a minimum of 8 letters. ;)

    Franklinguy that's a terrific piece. Like you I have memories of my dad which are closely tied to baseball. It's one of the reasons vintage cards of the 50s and 60s are dear to me.

    Thanks, guys. I've been pretty fortunate to meet some of the players I did. I may not follow baseball day-to-day like it did but I still enjoy the game and have fun watching even if I'm not so familiar with all the guys playing.

    In 1969 I went with a buddy, also a Oriole fan, to see the O's play at Yankee Stadium on a mid-week afternoon. We'd decided that we'd make a couple of banners to support our club. We set to work dividing an old bed sheet and, with orange paint and a marker, we each created a work of art. His was...

    August 2012 Card of The Month

    FWIW I'm with Indiana. Every once in awhile I might buy a pack to see what they look like but I generally have no use for current stuff other than buying a base card of guys on my fantasy team. But I DO understand the rules and am not asking for a change. I'm realize that I am waaay out of step...

    TCZ Coins - Link the Ink - Week 11

    I thought it might be former Astro Eric Anthony until the hint. And I doubt Anthony ever had signed cards

    TCZ Coins - Link the Ink - Week 11

    I looked at the list of #1 picks to try to find someone it could possibly be. When I got to Lindros I said 'No way'. :ohmy: Looks like '?? Anthony'. Usually when you get the answer it snaps, and look at the auto and can see the name. Not this time. Even knowing the name doesn't help me see...

    First Post: Showing My DeMarco Murray Supercollection

    550 cards! Of one guy! And a guy who was a rookie last year at that!! :w00t: I guess the days of collecting every card of a guy are looooong gone. There are some really nice cards there, btw. My favorite is the Topps one right above the NFL Equipment ones.

    Introducing the TCZ Award System

    Yup, good idea. It could be a walker on a field of T206s. :mad: :lol:

    Introducing the TCZ Award System

    LOL :D Those commercials are pretty funny. EDIT... hey I just saw that I got that award. And here I am thinking I never win anything! Gracias. But I hope there is no "oldest guy on the site" award.

    Fake or not fake

    I didn't feel any difference between the 64s I pulled and a couple of 63s, but after all this time it could be because the cards have absorbed moisture thru humidity (I'm in Houston after all). But a side by side with other 64s will tell the tale. See if you can find some from the same series if...

    Fake or not fake

    Pulled out some '64s and they feel no different than any other mid-60s Topps cards, certainly not any thinner. Hard to say for sure without having it in hand. You have a local card shop? Or you could grab a couple of commons off eBay for about a buck and a quarter shipped. Use them for...

    NHL prepared to have a lockout/ Not Again!

    Unreal. Coming off a fun season we're going to have to go through this? They never learn. Just for luck I'll post one of my best hockey cards. My three favorite goalies:
