January 10, 201214 yr Author Anyone collect NBA cards? A friend gave me a whole collection. It's probably worthless, but it was like 25 years ago, so maybe not. In any case, if you're interested let me know. I don't really collect anything at the moment, but I have a large collection of autographed pictures, baseballs and various other "stuff." Used to. Some of those old-school ones can be worth some money; the ones from the '70s, that is. Among those that were stolen from me way back when was a Dr. J rookie that sells for hundreds now. The bulk of my baseball and basketball cards were from the '70s, and there were many valuable ones among them — ones that have held up in value even as prices on the mass-produced ones from the mid-'80s on have bottomed out.
January 10, 201214 yr Old money and pictures of me with college basketball coaches. I've gotten a few good pictures over the last few years, they all sit framed around our computer at the house.
January 10, 201214 yr All the cards seem to be from the 1990-93 range. I have three Jordans from 1990. Some of the cards are multi-player "confrontation" cards. Some are foil cards. All sorts of things. Ebay is your price guide.
January 10, 201214 yr A while back I had a small collection of game-used bats from obscure Cincinnati Reds catchers. Included Lloyd McClendon, Alex Trevino, Dave Van Gorder, Dann Bilardello, Brad Gulden, Vic Correll, and a couple others that I can't remember now that I'm in my dotage.
January 11, 201214 yr Back in the 70's I collected baseball cards and beer cans, then went to diecast nascars and old fishing lures and tackle. Now I'm collecting dust, and deer heads. 40 guns and 300 pocket knives.
January 11, 201214 yr How could I forget this, as I sit and stare at Mrs. S's Beanie Baby collection in cased on the other side of the room. She's got about 3 thousand of them.
January 11, 201214 yr Author Oh, I forgot, I also have a handful of commemorative soda pop bottles that are pretty cool, stuff people have given me over time, but I don't actively hunt for them. I've got 7-UP ones from 1973 NDU football, 1976 Indiana hoops and 1979 Indiana State hoops, as well as 1975 Cincy Reds Pepsi and 1980 Big Red Louisville hoops.
January 11, 201214 yr How could I forget this, as I sit and stare at Mrs. S's Beanie Baby collection in cased on the other side of the room. She's got about 3 thousand of them. I have 2 garbage bags ful of them. Including a bunch of those McDonalds "Teeny Beenies". Almost threw them out a couple times. But I don't because they are supposed to be worth a lot of money someday?
January 14, 201214 yr Author Vintage Turntables,Vinyl Records.I think that's it. BTW Schue I got something at the house for you and it's not a turntable,album or a action figure.:thumb: You've got my curiosity piqued, for sure.
January 20, 201214 yr In all seriousness, I don't actively collect anything. I have a lot of baseball cards that I collected growing up which are probably not worth anything. I do have a set of basketball cards that are actually worth some money.
January 20, 201214 yr WWII militaria. Mostly patches, medals & uniforms. 20 years ago I picked up the rarest item I have: a Medal of Honor made during WWII.
