I posted this on my site last week, then went back and counted how many of these most valuable rookie cards from each year dating back to 1948 I actually own.

have 24 — but my oldest is just 1975, hahaha! How many have you checked off?

I got the next-best thing — Patrick Mahomes’ 2018 Prizm card, his second-year card, for $21. This is now the oldest Mahomes card I have. It’s not a big deal. But it makes me and my football card display happier.

I’m a firm believer in upgrading your cards — so someday, this card might turn into a PSA 10, and then maybe into a 2017 rookie card. Thankfully; since I’m a card collector, I have all the time in the world to collect!

When I renewed my Collectors Club membership with PSA, they sent me a $60 credit with Fanatics Live, and 6 months of $20 Loupe credits (1 per month).

While I like breaks, I wanted this FL credit to count, so I bought in on an $80 baseball repack with 1of1 Cards on FL. So I kicked in an additional $27 i think, to go with the $60 credit, and I won this 2012 Bowman Bryce Harper RC PSA 10, which is now my best Harper rookie card.

Just thought I’d share this Fanatics Live credit strategy!

I got this while heading to the 10th tee to watch Tiger Woods tee off in 1996. Stewart was cool enough to stop and sign for me.

He won the 1999 US Open at Pinehurst, where the tour is once again, 25 years later.

Anyone else have his 1990 Pro Set card? Dude wore knickers in NFL colors all the time.

I got my hobby box in early (nobody does it better than Dave and Adam’s), so I ripped ‘er open! Anyone else rip theirs a day early?
