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.

TTM Blast from the Past: Hank Bauer
Here is another TTM success from my first set of collecting days. One of the most beloved Yankees of the 1950's, Hank Bauer signed this card for me. Interestingly, whenever I write to a player who played on the great Yankee teams of the '50's-'60s, I always ask them who their favorite teammate was. Nearly everyone says "Hank Bauer." It seems that he was universally liked.
