Since there seems to be little card traffic in rec.collecting,
I will post only to rec.collecting.cards from now on. If this
is a problem, let me know.

Baseball card auction, mostly rookie cards. Includes Ripken, Clemens
and Sandberg rookies, so wade through the list.....the newer cards
(Eldred, Listach, Karros, etc) are at the end.

I'm by no means an expert at grading cards, so I try to give
as complete a description of the card conditions below. I've included
my estimate of the card grade, but again, it's an estimate.
If you receive the cards and are unhappy, send them back and I'll
refund your money. Newer cards with no condition description are
NRMT or better.

The rules follow the listing of the lots.
