New to the board

Hello all. I'm new to the board and have been out of collecting for years. I've been off work for a few weeks because of minor surgery, so in my boredom, I pulled out all my old cards and went through them. Needless to say, my interest has been somewhat reignited. For the first time ever, I sent seven of my cards out to be graded, mostly out of curiosity. I collected sports cards from 1985 until about 1994. I collected baseball, football, and basketball. When I was young, every time I would get a haircut or go to the grocery store with my dad, he would let me pick out one pack of cards. Going through these cards takes me back to those days when I was young and carefree lol. Anyway, sorry for rambling. Y'all take it easy on me since I'm a second time newbie to sports cards lol. And thank you to the board for having me.

Thank you! Pretty much anything from the 50's-90's, any brand. Two of the cards I sent in to get graded are a 1971 Topps Willie Stargell and a 1993 Topps Derek Jeter rookie card. Growing up I was a huge fan of Nolan ryan.
