Yes, my blog has been inactive for 6 months. I have been busy at work and have had a slew of real life expenses in that time. So, I haven't been doing much collecting and, even if I was, don't have the time to do any justice to the blog. Alas, the rest of the year looks to be more of the same.
That said, I did get to go to a show today and I am so excited I am about to bust and I gotta show someone! I managed to find one card towards completing my 1973 set (26 left to go) and took a flyer on some reasonably priced 1975 star cards. But I am mainly excited about buying a 800 count box of 1979 commons in mostly Ex condition or better. My 1973 set is stalled, so I figured I might want to start another set just to keep my toes in the collecting water. I was planning on 1975, but since I need to go back and do 1979 at some point if I intend to have a complete 1970s run, this box was a golden opportunity.
But, my excitement is mainly about this:
The first, and likely only, T206 I will ever own. But, it is in great condition, apart from a surface wrinkle and a smudge on the back. It is hard to believe that this card has been around longer than anyone I have known in my life.
Well, back to blog hibernation
