No, I do NOT collect comix myself, but my brothers do.  They need some
Marvel Universe cards to complete their sets.  I suppose they have some
to trade...Here goes:


SERIES I:

They also need 3 cards to complete their G.I. Joe set, but I can't remember
which ones.  Call Steven at (715) 537-3820; he will be the one dealing
with you.  Less hassle for me, I'm just the typer-in-of-want-lists  8-)

Maybe someone can help me.  I was just reviewing the most recent Beckett Guide
and discovered that there are two listings for Lindros' Score Rookie card. One
is listed as #440A with a price range of $12-$18, while the second is listed as
#440C with a price range of $18-$30 (both are in the 90-91 Score set).  Does
anyone know the difference between these cards?  If so, how do I determine 
which one I have?

Thanks in advance.

I know there are quite a few people that would be interested in your recent
collection (when you obtain one, that is).  Forget about any European
passport, Government is very strict, when you renew your passport you have
to give back your old one, unless you have a still valid visum in your
passport.  In the latter case they will clearly mark the passport invalid
(by making huge punches and/or cuts through all pages except the page
carrying the visum).  A long time ago I wanted to keep my passport because
it contained entry/exit stamps for Albania (quite exceptional in 1970).
No way.

A good source can be found with some criminal people.  They use those old
passports to create forgeries.

Why I may seem so unreasonable to you folks, is that you are so inconsiderate
of the rest of us.  I killed over 70 card articles this morning.  Less then 20
had CARDS in the subject line.  This is not an occasional forgetting, this is
arrogance on your part in assuming that the rest of the world should bow to
you.

The source was CBS News who interviewed Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle and FBI
agents.  All agreed that most of the memorabilia was fake.  Note that I said
memorabilia, not cards.

Now some people have gotten the impression that I hate card collectors.  Not
true.  What I do dislike is their assumption that they own this group and that they
have little respect for the rest of us.  When the CFV for rec.collecting.cards
comes up in a couple of weeks, I will vote yes.  The person who wanted to post
card GIFs and use rec.collecting for commercial purposes is what really pissed
me off.   The proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.

Along with this, I believe that for every case a dealer ordered DIRECT from

Hi, I have some 92 Classic draft sets (O'Neal) and some 91 Wildcard basketball

and $10.00 for each Wildcard set.  Postage is extra.  E-mail me if interested.
Thank you.

I have a relative who is selling me her late husband's coin collection. 
I'm giving her an amount half-way between blue-book and the prices listed
in "Coin Prices" magazine, is this realistic/fair for both of us?

Also, she has a good amount of US paper money, going back to about 1900,
maybe earlier.  Does anyone collect this stuff, is it any good, what do
I look for, is there an FAQ?

She took it to a coin dealer and he offered her face value.  Needless to say,
if that's all she would get I'll buy it for a bit more.

Subject: CARDS:Fleer Basketball Cello (jumbo) Sale
Organization: EECS Department, Northwestern University, Evanston, Il., USA

I have some 92-93 Fleer basketball cello (jumbo) factory sealed boxes plus 
some unopened packs to sell.  We will split postage costs.

1. factory sealed cello box (24 packs, rookie sensations)	$45.00 per box

2. 5 packs of unopened cello packs -----------------------------$10.00

3. 10 packs of unopened cello packs ----------------------------$17.50

I will go as far as to guarantee you will get at least two insert cards when
you buy the 10 packs of unopened cello packs if you fear the packs are searched.
If you don't find at least two insert cards (rookie sensations or Larry Johnson
Rookie of the year subset cards) in the 10 packs you bought, I will mail you
two insert cards (1 Larry Johnson and 1 rookie sensation).  I trust that you
won't try to trick me and I will ask those who ordered to let me know what
inserts they get so I will have a ball park figure.

If you are interested or you have any questions, please e-mail me.
Note: If and when you really didn't get two inserts, you can choose from the
ones I have right now (No, I don't have the rookie sensations of Larry Johnson,
Mutombo, Steve Smith, Billy Owens yet.  I am still opening packs, if I don't
sell these packs, I will most probably opened them all myself  :) ).  Thanks.
