Baseball Card of the Week

The Sports Card of the Week (or sports card story) is provided by our members. The Sports Card of the Week is not selected based on cash value or rarity. Rather, it's simply a card or story that has some sort of personal value to the person who owns it. We hope to show you the wide variety of reasons that people collect or find certain cards appealing. It's just our way of providing a way for collectors to share some of their passionate for this awesome hobby.

This week's Card Story of the Week is by Greg Fisher (aka Fisherg98) from West Henrietta, New York.

I quit buying cards in 1981 and didn't start again until my daughter became interested in baseball in 2005. A lot changed in 24 years! We were buying a few packs of Topps per week with a goal of collecting all the base cards. We hadn't even figured out what insert cards were all about when we pulled this Matt Holliday autograph card. I remember us trying to figure out if the autograph was real or not until Tom, a guy at our local card shop told us what it was.

We have many game used and autos now, but this one remains special.
