1952 Dixie Cup Ice Cream |
1960 Pirates Tag-Ons Stickers
This super neat item was similar to but 8 years BEFORE
one of my favorites, the 1968 Topps Baseball Action Stickers.
There's a link to that issue at the bottom of this snipet.
This great item was issued by Richard-Lawrence Co. of Pittsburgh
and honors the legendary World Series champion 1960 Pirates who
had just humbled the mighty Yankees.

Like all collectibles, over time some sports cards go down in value, others go up and some can even become very valuable. Card values are based on many factors: player popularity, scarcity, condition & collector interest. A card can be scarce but without demand value may not be great.
Q: What are some ways to collect cards ?
* Complete sets by year & issue
* Cards of your favorite player
* Cards of your favorite team "TEAM SETS"
* Rookie cards
* Hall-of-Famer cards
* I even had a girlfriend that collected Don Mossi (checkout his ears),
players whose last name start with "Z", and the Brett brothers George &
Ken (she had a crush on George).
* "TYPE COLLECTING" (everyone should at least do a little of this !)
"Type Collecting"
is collecting at least one of each different "type" of issue.
On scarcer issues you can add a less expensive common
while on others you can select your favorite player or team.
