I've been a Detroit Lions fan for 15 years and also dabbled in sports card collecting. So the two come together and I start collecting Lions players cards. I have built a list of 52 players whose cards I am trying to collect to create a nice display for the family room (the list is growing). All the cards will end up being PSA graded. I'm trying for RCs were I can get them; the players have to be depicted on the card as a Lion. I'm also trying to minimize repetition of sets. I'm not as concerned about the condition of the card as I am about following those couple of rules. Some of the cards on my list can be very valuable at high grade levels and I simply can't afford to pay top $ for 50 different cards. First goal: get the collection, I can always work on upgrading. (Yes, and every now and then I'll do some dealing in Pokemon cards; for the kids, of course). So here's the list, please feel free to e-mail priddle@tm.net if you have anything that you think I may be interested in. (I've already obtained the cards shown in bold)
