Welcome to my blog!!!

I have collected baseball cards and autographs over the years. I still have boxes full of cards (as well as newer cards) that are just sitting there. So, I have decided to see how many of them I can get autographed. I use through the mail as my preferred route for this adventure. I also have an account on Zistle and The Trading Card Database for trading purposes (stevienicks77).

Council Bluffs card show review

Last weekend, I went to, what I would consider, my first "big" card show across the river in Council Bluffs.  I asked my card collecting friends on Twitter (refuse to call it X) for suggestions, which included some sage advice.  

I ended up spending about $70-80.  These days, I compare what I spend at card shows versus buying blaster boxes, which I was almost buying weekly, especially prior to the pandemic.  The last 5 years, it has been getting harder to get my hands on one.  My local big box store is not selling them anymore, so I think I'll have to change my collecting strategy to just PC Cards.  I liked buying blasters to have trade bait, but I can't have trade bait if I can't find it.  🤷‍♀️

Here are my top 5 favorite cards I bought at the show, in no particular order:
