Your probably all wondering about how this website came to be. Well what can I say, it has been a long time coming! I started collecting when I was kid like many of us do. It was something my grandfather enjoyed a lot and I guess you could say it rubbed off on me. During high school and college, I stepped away from the hobby for awhile as life lead me down different paths, but I picked the hobby up over the last few years as I move into my mid/late 20s. As luck would have it however, I developed an interest in Pre-war cards and 1911 Tobacco cards in particular as one caught my eye on a chance encounter at a local card shop while I was picking up some supplies. And now here I find myself the young guy in the vintage hockey card world.
That brings me to this website. I hope that you find it as useful and interesting as I do and better yet find it informative and inspirational. I have a personal interest for things that are odd and unusual as well as a great respect for history and those old things we find that help represent it. There are lots of blogs and sites set up by dedicated people who love the hobby, but I hope that after looking around here, you'll be reminded of a few items from the past and surprised at a few as well - after all that is what this hobby is about.
Happy Collecting!!!
