Hi all - happy new year! I've spent the last few months trying to rescan my collection (how many things I didn't know about scanning when I first started this process)..mostly this was inspired by Photobucket changing their terms of service for linking photos, and I used the need to move my photos somewhere else to also "upgrade" all my scans (higher DPI, less plastic, etc.)
anyways, I've found that some of the Minor League cards I've managed to collect over the years have been my favorite. There is something about the rawness of the cards - the quality of the photos, the players haven't made it yet, and the nature of how the cards are distributed - many are distributed at games - that make for a good story. Many of the most sought after cards of certain players ARE their some of their minor league issues (Ripken, McGwire, Henderson, etc.)
anyways, i'm no expert on this subject...i just love seeing minor league cards. I do not think I have seen such a thread during my time on FCB so thought I would contribute by kicking this off. please share! show both new and old!
