    I miss their very EXISTENCE! I love Beckett, but it was nice having more than one monthly hobby periodical out there. When I started in the early 90s it was Beckett, Sports Collectors Digest, Tuff Stuff, Baseball Cards (which became Sports Cards), Trading Cards, Topps Magazine, and maybe a couple others? We're down to Beckett and SCD now and that's about it. Internet killed the print... star.

    I really would love to know how many copies each publication prints out versus the heyday of collecting.

    I think a TTM and IP video would be awesome, to address the how to component, and maybe also the etiquette aspect.....some people stuff 12 cards in an envelope with a typed letter they change the name on for rach player and expect everything back signed and inscribed. A few players will oblige requests like that, I know, but I think people will sign more with sincere letters and a few cards or photos per envelope.

    IP even more so, as I have seen graphers shove literal handfuls of items in guys' faces and be super rude, not asking politely, calling people out, not saying thank you, etc. Then people wonder why players wont sign...not at all cool! I'm sure you run into guys like this in your graphing adventures!

    Just my thoughts!

    Cheers!
