The Old is New Again

This past weekend my family and I took a trip, spending the weekend in my college town. We went to a football game and I was able to share the campus with my wife and two sons. It’s not a short trip, and it’s been since before my boys were born that we’ve gone. While… Read More The Old is New Again

Pacers Autographs by the Letter: B

I’m back with the second post in a… well… 22 post series of my progress so far in collecting an autograph for every Pacer to play in a regular season game. 22 posts because the Pacers don’t have any former or current players with a last name starting with I, Q, U or X. Maybe… Read More Pacers Autographs by the Letter: B

Monday Mailday Mashup

It’s always good to start off the week with a nice mailday. Today I gladly opened two plain white envelopes with a total of 9 cards, packaged very well. One package was from a stack sale on Twitter, the other was a separate purchase. I’m in several different lanes right now collecting-wise, but that is… Read More Monday Mailday Mashup

Gem of a Trade, Gem of a Collecting Week

A good part of my collection came through trading. I spent a lot of time in the 2000s trading for Pacers in online message boards like The Bench, HobbyInsider, etc… And before that I traded cards with friends in my younger days. At some point it seemed like the momentum in trading that I found… Read More Gem of a Trade, Gem of a Collecting Week

Filmstrips on Cards Not Going Out of Style

I have two clear memories of watching film strips, and although I likely viewed them during school growing up, but can I only recall two specific times. The first is being at my grandmother’s house seeing pictures of my dad’s family growing up. I treasure what I remember from that afternoon, and I snapped some… Read More Filmstrips on Cards Not Going Out of Style

Retired Pacers and a Contest

Baseball card land is going crazy over 2017 Topps Series 1 release. And while I’ll probably pick up a blaster or loose packs myself, I am just as excited over a lot of former Pacers I picked up in the last week. I recently came across my favorite type of ebay seller: One that offers… Read More Retired Pacers and a Contest

Recent Pickups: Pacers Autographs

Excited about adding these three cards to the Pacers autograph collection, which now includes autographs of 76 different Pacer players. David West’s SP Authentic rookie autograph can be had at a reasonable price.  He is still capable of a double-double on any given night. Lou Amundson is becoming a fan favorite in Indiana with his… Read More Recent Pickups: Pacers Autographs

TTM Thursday: Clark Kellogg Return

Received a Upper Deck Generations card signed by former Indiana Pacer and basketball commentator, Clark Kellogg.  This was from a handful of requests I sent out back on 7/27.  Probably my all-time favorite success to date. Not only did Mr. Kellogg return a card signed, but he also included a nice response to my letter.… Read More TTM Thursday: Clark Kellogg Return
