A pair of WATCH REPAIR MAGNIFIER GLASSES w/ LED LIGHTS. They even have a flip-up feature. Wow, for 5 bucks, my card collecting has taken another turn....so if you strain to read the back or front of your cards, these are great ! Don't hesitate to add them to Santa's list. Have a Merry, ~BOB~ ------------------------------- *Bob*

I can appreciate the struggle. I did buy a magnifier with a light at Office Depot while out Christmas shopping this weekend that seems to be helping.

I picked one up from the local philatelist. I can't see as good as I used to, but I can still spell. ------------------------------- Let's trade! I keep my Wantlist and For Sale lists updated.

You must be telling the truth. Your spectacles are in your profile picture!

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

That reminds me. I have to schedule an appointment with my eye doctor. switzr1 wrote: You must be telling the truth.

Oh a definite must, if for nothing more than 2001 Topps Archives Baseball wear the actual card number is microscopic in a trademark line.
