For cards that are FREE, just send a SASE envelope. Trading. As far as trading, I am interested in vintage cards only. I like to collect boxing cards (especially 1948 Leaf and 1951 Topps Ringside issues), vintage football (especially old Los Angeles Rams and star cards), vintage basketball cards (especially Pete Maravich, Jerry West, Dr. J, etc., Los Angeles Lakers stars, etc.). I like a saying by an old friend and trader Max Keddy- "I never met a card I didn't like." I feel the same. Send me your (reasonable offers only; unreasonable offers will be ignored) trade offers; vintage ONLY! In other words, no newer crap. Shipping & other details. Shipping is generally $3 for ungraded cards and $4 for graded cards. I offer shipping discounts for multiple purchases. Cards will be sent in a bubble mailer through USPS.

However for higher dollar cards I will only accept Bank Checks, Money Orders, or Paypal w/ confirmed delivery address. Pricing. Prices are mainly from PSA's Sports Market Report (SMR) for graded cards and the annual Sports Collector's Digest Standard Catalog Of Baseball Cards for ungraded cards. Keep in mind that price guides are just that- GUIDES, and some cards because of demand, eye appeal, centering, etc. may be higher or lower than listed prices. I will also accept reasonable offers on some cards. Grading. I use the standard grading scales used by most reputable hobby publications. January-February Special! Take 20% off all orders!!! |

1986-87 Fleer #31 Julius Erving (aka. "Dr. J")
1948 Leaf Knockout Gum #102 Jake LaMotta
Only in America can you beat the hell outta people (& get paid for it), beat the hell outta your wife, and have them make a movie starring Robert DeNiro about you. Jake "Raging
Bull" LaMotta did just that. LaMotta was a tough brawler in the ring. He was the first fighter to beat the great "Sugar" Ray Robinson. LaMotta was a terror in the ring, hence the
"Raging Bull" moniker. After hanging up the gloves, LaMotta got into the nightclub business, stand up "comedy," and wrote the book "Raging Bull" which won an Academy Award for
"Best Picture Of The Year" and also for Best Actor, Robert DeNiro, who played Jake LaMotta. LaMotta's wife also gained fame later on when she appeared nude in "Playboy"
magazine. God Bless America!
This 1948 Leaf Knockout Gum #102 Jake LaMotta card is one of the few cards issued of him. He also appeared in 1947 Bond Bread, 1951 Berk Ross "Hit Parade Of Champions,"
and 1951 Topps Ringside. For more boxing cards see our BOXING PAGE!

1970 Topps #247 Fred Dryer (Rookie card)
Fred Dryer was a terrific Defensive End for the Los Angeles Rams but originally he was a member of the New York Giants (see above 1970 Topps #247 Fred Dryer rookie card). Later
he became an actor and starred in his own TV series "HUNTER." It was ok but Fred Dryer was no "Dirty Harry." But nice try. There are a couple other football players I can think of that
also appeared in television or motion pictures- Ray Nitschke of the Packers appeared in the classic "The Longest Yard" with Burt Reynolds, Roman Gabriel (Rams) appeared in movies
as well as Merlin Olsen ("Little House On The Prairie," also FTD Florist TV commercials), Bubba Smith of the Colts appeared in "Police Academy," even Brett Favre (Packers) appeared
in "Something About Mary" with Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz.

1948 Leaf Knockout Gum #38 Jack Sharkey
Julius Erving, aka "Dr. J" was the real deal back in the 1970s. I didn't follow basketball much then but I knew who "Dr. J" was. This was when Erving was in the ABA. He went to the NBA
and later the Hall of Fame. Erving was magic before "Magic" Johnson and "Air" before Michael Jordan. This is one of my favorite Dr. J cards from the classic 1986-87 Fleer basketball set.

1972 Topps #343 Joe Namath Pro Action
Joe Namath cards can be quite expensive, particularly his 1965 Topps #122 rookie card ($1650 in PSA 7 NM holder) and 1966 Topps #96 2nd year card ($215 in a PSA 7). However his
1970's issues are very affordable, particularly his regular 1972 Topps #100 ($25 in a PSA 7) and last card, 1973 Topps #400 ($18). A somewhat expensive Namath was also included in the
1972 Topps high number series, 1972 Topps #343 Joe Namath Pro Action (above). This card used to sell for $250 in a PSA 8 NM-MT, but has dropped to $140 in the last year or two. Still
a tough Joe Namath card and a must have if you are a Namath collector.

1988 Fleer #9 Larry Bird
I really hated Larry Bird and the Celtics (Still do; I am a Lakers fan) but now that he is retired I realize that he really was a great basketball player. He wasn't blessed with blazing speed
or jumping ability. But Bird knew how to play the game. He could shoot, pass, rebound, and had a will to win. That's what it takes. He also had guts. I remember late in his career Bird had
a bad back and would be sitting on the sidelines laying down trying to keep his back loosened up. Then he'd come into the game and knock down some clutch 3-pointer. I miss Larry Bird.
This 1988 Fleer #9 Larry Bird is one of my favorites. Not only because it has Bird, but my favorite all-time Laker, James Worthy (#42, and also a Hall of Famer) is clearly in the picture.
Two Hall of Famers for the price of one. Cool card.
