Hi Everyone, wanted to introduce myself.

Hello!

I am new to this forum, but not new to card collecting or trading. I've been doing that for close to 35 years now.

As you can tell from my name, I am primarily a NY Yankees collector, almost exclusively Topps and my collection is smaller than most but I like to keep it focused. I currently have every Topps base (Series 1, 2, Update/Traded), insert, Opening Day, Team sets and (almost!) all SP variations for the NY Yankees from 1960 - 2016. I have full Topps Yankees Team sets from 1960 - 1998 and then close to complete if not complete Yankees Team sets from 2000 - 2016. I focus on the base cards plus photo variations but will collect autos or relics if I like them.

I also collect Thurman Munson cards from all brands and sets. I have a complete Thurman Munson Topps base set collection in PSA 9 graded condition as well as hundreds of other cards and a couple of one-of-a-kind items from the Topps Vault (like a 1973 Color Photo Negative of the picture used for the 1973 Deckled Edge Topps set).

I love to chat about collecting (especially Yankees!) and I like to consider myself fairly well informed when it comes to Topps cards throughout the years.

I look forward to chatting with all of you, thanks for having me.
