In response to your goodbye letter,I wish you much luck. Every red-blooded American boy collected baseball cards in the 50's and 60's-long before it was poisoned like it is now.I am sorry to tell you but many many years ago Topps was the only seller. Now there are lots of companies. And some are closing their doors as are baseball cards stores.All chip collectors are not angels. But what collecting hobby doesn't have the bad apples. I have had my issues with people on this site, but for the most part the experience is great as much information is talked about.Maybe you will come back when you see how much that 1952 Mantle costs.If not, enjoy your refound hobby.
