RIP, Duke.
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.

RIP Duke
I was fortunate enough to pull this Duke Snider card from a pack of 2011 Topps. I had never really looked at Duke's stats, and unfortunately it took news of his passing for me to check them out. The dude used to put up 40 HRs like he was Adam Dunn...you could just pencil him in for 40 a year. I know there was always great debate about the best NY center fielder in the '50s...Mantle, Mays or Snider. Those are some brand names.
RIP, Duke.
RIP, Duke.
