ABOUT STAN MUSIAL

Brooks Robinson holds the major league record for games played at 3rd base (2,870).

He also holds records for Double-Plays turned (618), Putouts (2,697) and Assists (6,205).

Robinson played in 18 All-Star Games, only Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Stan Musial have played more.

He was AL MVP, All-Star Game MVP and World Series MVP. Frank Robinson is only other player ever to win all 3.

His nicknames "Mr. Hoover" and "the Human Vacuum Cleaner" were well-esrned.

Brooks is generally considered to be the greatest defensive third baseman ever.

Stan Musial was not only the greatest player in Cardinals history but one of the best ever. Stan "The Man" played all of his 22-year career in St. Louis and was selected to 24 All-Star games and is the Cardinals career leader in almost every batting category.

Are sports cards valuable ?

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.
