The Way It All Began

While I've been a sports card collector since the late 1980's, I eventually realized the importance of focusing on certain themes or interests.  So I decided to "specialize" in cards and autographs of Jewish players.  In the late 2000's as celebrity cards became more prevalent, I broadened the scope to include cards of Jewish people.

 

Along the way, I made deals at card shows and ran some online auctions.  I'm especially proud to have been a Moderator on The Bench from 2008-2010 (www.thebenchtrading.com).  I was also a published columnist on the now-defunct baseballdigest.com.  As is the case with many people, changing times and personal circumstances caused personal priorities to evolve as well.  In 2011, I paused my hobby involvement until the 2020's.

 

Thanks to my wife and us moving to a larger home with dedicated space to organize collectibles, I resumed trading on The Bench in April 2023.  Building this site is a celebration of coming full-circle...rekindling friendships and building on great memories.  I’m delighted to share my collection with you.
