nixtress's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Baseball goldmine Trevor is going to be a very happy boy. I decided, before going to Gramps today, to hit a garage sale or two as I'm still looking for a few things for the boys. And I hit a landmine on sportsy stuff. I came away from one with approximately 5000 baseball cards (5000 freaking baseball cards! What was I thinking?), about 15 glossy color photos signed by some decent-ish players, an older jersey (which I'm going to hang in a shadow box with a few other items), a brand new Indians baseball cap (never worn and still tagged), and a slew of other memorabilia. And I only spent $30.00. The male half of the couple having the garage sale said he was an avid collector of all things baseball and hated to part with any of it but they were downsizing and getting ready to move into a smaller place. His wife had told him to pick what he was selling or she would. Lucky us! Trev is going to be pumped. We've even got Jim Thome's rookie card. He loved that guy. 11:30 a.m. - 2005-05-13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
