Hello to all fellow collectors, my name is Mark and I am originally from Rhode Island. After serving in the US Army for 22 years I am now a Department of the Army civilian working on Fort Carson Colorado, living in Colorado Springs. Growing up I followed the Red Sox, Patriots, Bruins, Nordiques and Celtics. Been a fan of these teams since my early years and since there move to Denver in 1995 I am a Avalanche fan. Still follow the Pats, Red Sox, Bruins and Celtics. I am a member of many collecting boards and frequent them when time permits. I have been trading and buying cards since 1974 and have over 60,000 cards available for trade or sale. One of these days I will completely catalog them. I have been on eBay for many years and have a feedback rating of 2729/100%. When I trade I always package the cards in a penny sleeve, top loader and team bag, (size permitting). I also ship in a bubble envelope. I consider myself a honorable trader and someone who can be counted on to complete any trade.
This site is dedicated to the collecting of Sports cards and memorabilia. The items shown in this site are all pieces of memorabilia from my personal collection. My purpose in creating this site was to display items in my collection, open another avenue for finding items that I might not otherwise come across, to show collector’s items that they might not have seen before, and to educate collectors on the memorabilia and history of Sports Cards.
Using the links above you'll find the items broken into the following categories:
