I'm a collector from the early-mid 80s.  I didn't collect anything other than dust for about 30 years while working and raising a family.  I got back into collecting Sep-2021; coincidentally the same week that my oldest daughter left for college. 

Topps Football 1956-2015; currently seeking 1960-1978 and the 1956 Contest Card #3. 

Topps Baseball from 1982 and older; currently completing 1977, 1979, and 1982 sets. 

Still looking for the "right" newer football sets since Topps left.  (I prefer a "traditional" cardboard product with nice pictures front and back, player bio, and complete career statistics.  Is that too much to ask?  lol). 

Lots of 1950s-1960s miscellaneous cards from collections I bought when I was a kid (1959 Fleer Three Stooges).  

I love the 2021 Parkside NWSL soccer sets. 

I also love cards in plastic sheets and binders.  Gotta store the binders safely though...

Trying for complete sets with some scattered singles for fav players or other cards where I haven't collected the set. Also looking for a few scattered football cards 1990-2015 Topps. 

Minnesota sports fan.  

My first cards were a small box of 1977 Topps Football given to me from a family friend.  I started collecting in 1980. 

I managed to hang onto most of the cards that I collected when I was a kid but I might always have some regret for selling my big rookie cards from the 1960s (Yaz, Rose, Jackson, and Ryan) for beer money in college and selling the rest of my 1957-1963 baseball after college.
