Anyways, a while back I was killing time on eBay and I came across this card. I'm not usually a sucker for non-sports cards, but I had to have this. So I picked it up and now use it as a book mark in my copy of The Great Gatsby.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.

Nice Card, Old Sport
My favorite book (minus the Harry Potter series...don't judge), is The Great Gatsby. Nerd alert, but I've read it many, many times. Pretty much once per year since high school. My copy of the book is torn and tattered and has notes all over it. I don't know why, I've always just loved the book. It resonated with me. I even like the movie. Maybe because Jay Gatsby was played by The Natural?
