I have mint or near-mint rookie card originals (i.e., not re-prints) of players like Walter Payton, Jerry Rice, Barry Sanders (Score and ProSet), Emmitt Smith... I collected them when I was a kid. They are all in hard plastic cases.

I just signed a lease and need to raise cash to pay the deposit. I'm willing to sell below the market price if you can take them all off my hands. I live in Chicago - if you're in town and can arrange to see them, please contact me.
