    Show us whatever cards you want. It’s not always about the cards. I know I tune in for the personality, the passion, and the knowledge you provide.

    Some great goal cards, Rick. Lots of local shows for you. Nice '68 Orioles cards. The '63 Tresh looks crisp! Love "Crazy Legs". Nice Stargell RC. Happy Birthday Willie! You don't sound complicated to me. You are a sophisticated collector!

    Gave a video like - Aren't we all complicated collectors!? 🤣Really enjoy the Morrell Meats cards. That '63 Mays is one of my favorites of his. Great video as always, Rick.

      I think I am the most complicated of all. I make up all these rules in my head. hahaha. Yeah, those Morrell Meats card are the best. Mays is a god! Thanks for watching!

    Hi Rick, A thoughtful collector is bound to be complicated. You're often thinking about the direction you want your collection to go and the card that will help you get it there. Of course, you know I love the 51 Bowman Hirsch. The image with the blue uniform and yellow background just pops. It looks like something your would see in a comic book or piece of advertising from the era. Great looking Frank, Brooks and Boog trio. You're right Boog was an excellent player, but if you're not in the HOF, it is hard for today's fans to remember you. Beautiful Tresh with the light blue full bleed and the rookie trophy. That is the challenge of set building. The minor stars that are single prints or fan favorites that cost you in some cases more than a HOFer.
    Keep doing what you're doing. I always enjoy your videos. I look forward to the Podcast.

      Thanks Terry. My mind goes all over the place when it comes to my collection!
      Whenever I buy a Rams card now, I always say "wait 'til Terry sees it".
      man, that Tresh card will live in infamy. My friend says he still needs Tresh's 69 card to finish his set. The man is just elusive. Thanks for watching, my friend!

    Hey Rick! We are all complicated haha! Glad to see you make another video. Really looking forward to that podcast! Great pickups and i'm with you on the Tom Tresh. I needed that card to complete the rookie cup set for that year and would not pay 30 dollars for it and one of the card shows i was at i picked up about 10 56'topps for my set and I happened to ask if he had it and he did and gave it to me for 15 i couldn't pay fast enough just to get it complete haha! Glad to hear all is going well and that high # set is going to be pretty awesome and definitely a good investment! Enjoy your videos as always!!!!

      Mike! I thought I was the only one who was complicated, but it sounds like a bunch of us are!
      That Tresh card was a pain. I have a buddy who still needs his 1969 card to finish that set. Sounds like you got a good deal on the 63. Thanks so much for watching!

    I have some of the same thoughts you expressed in this video. Especially thinking nobody wants to see the cards I have because they can see them everywhere. Your collection is spectacular and I always enjoy your videos! Although I don’t consider myself a Dodger fan in particular, I really like the Morrell Meats cards Your Podres pickup looks great!

      Rick, it's a struggle for me sometimes to figure out what to show. I am glad I am not alone in thinking this way.
      Love the Morrell Meats cards too. Do you have any? Do you see them much on the east coast?
      Appreciate your kind words, Rick!

      @Rocketrickj18 Před 2 měsíci

      Unfortunately I don't have any yet. I do have a 1960 Bell Brand Duke Snider and a 1961 Bell Brand Gil Hodges, which are also very cool. You probably know this, but I only learned yesterday that Red Heart Dog Food was a subsidiary of Morrell Meats. It was on recent the @BaseballCollector GAOC Podcast with @DansVintagePC. I should have known it because in my copy of Beckett's Baseball Card Price Guide #10 it plainly states the relationship in the Red Heart description! So much for my ability to retain facts (lol)! Anyway, keep the faith because you are doing great work on CZcams and I haven't really found anyone else that does what you do!@@RickAcostaDodgerCardCollector

  • @mikethesportshistorycollec1947

    The problem with Tresh was that he wasn't Mantle. If Mantle was a few years younger and healthier, Tresh could have had a career more like Maris. Good ball player though.
