General Forum

I just had a beautiful moment. There was a question on the forums regarding the 1981 Fleer baseball set (still a favorite of mine) and couldn't resist the opportunity to pull the binder off of the shelf and take a gander through the set.

In the back of the binder was the 128-card 1981 Fleer Star Sticker set! I remember passing on that back in the day because the price was a bit high (especially for an 11 or 12 year old as I was then). But I have ZERO recollection of when or how I got this.

I would love to hear if anyone else has a fun story like this. (And I hope I find a few more around here! LOL!)

I found out recently I have a complete set of 1990 Topps.

I found a few Topps baseball factory sets that my wife bought me from 1990-91-92. I forgot I had.  

One of the problems with keeping as detailed records as I do...one of only two I can think of...is that my collection rarely surprises me. (The other is the hand pain from writing it all out on looseleaf)

I'm nearing the end of a project that has me looking through all my scans, some of which I have not looked at since I made them, and there is a degree of discovery to cards I haven't looked at in any form since about 2014. I could easily pull out my listing and see which names go to which number, but actually knowing what the cards looked like was not really something I could remember. I find that the 2014-15 season in particular had mostly left my memory.
