Hey everyone, just realized that I never did a formal intro post as we are asked to do, so here it is.

I was a baseball card collector in the late 80s through the early 90s, and I have gotten back into the hobby this summer thanks to my oldest kid catching the bug. I'm still strictly baseball, and our family collects primarily Topps products and Astros stars. I also PC R.Devers and M.Soroka, along with some other stars to a much lesser extent.

My handle on twitter is PC_collector, and that's not redundant -- my initials are PC, obviously.

A lot of you folks have been super welcoming and helpful so far, and I appreciate y'all being understanding as I figure things out on the fly. Thanks for all the help, and I look forward to being part of the community!

Welcome fellow Houstonian. If you need baseball card details that you want asked privately, feel free to drop a PM. I’ve had no hobby breaks since 93 so I know the all the basics and nuiassances. Hope you stay here on BO.
