Ive got thousands of baseball cards that I bought around the time I was 10-13. I remember going to tons of card shows and there used to be card stores everywhere. Now it appears that market has totally dried up and nobody wants them anymore. Ive got cards from the mid '80’s up to probably mid '90’s. Some might be worth a few bucks but the rest are probably worthless. Not like the cards our father’s had. My dad remembers putting a Mickey Mantle card on his bike spokes as a kid and then my grandmother threw out all his cards after a while. ---
