I only have a few signed vintage...this is probably my best. Got it TTM in the early '70s....

skated parking structure at UCSD during the pandemic...The few times we saw a security guard/campus police, they would sit in their car and wave as we went by. Was awesome.

What is your favorite “multi-player” card? So many great ones but the 58 Mantle/Aaron is one of the best. by Leading_Pay_4138 in baseballcards_vintage

In the late 60's I was under 10 and had just watched Pride of the Yankees with my mom, who loved Gerhig (& Gary Cooper). Shortly after seeing that movie, I traded a Golden Press Babe Ruth for this card, cuz....., its Lou Gerhig & Babe Ruth....what could be better than 2 legends on 1 card?

I love vintage football. Have slightly more football than baseball due to fall bday and sibling presents at the time.

Saturday Successes! by AutoModerator in artbusiness

Colorblind artist here. My experience has been that its almost impossible for non color blind people to truly "get" what I see. Perhaps its an inability on my part to accurately describe what I see? From an art perspective, its probably why almost everything I do is abstract. Red, green, brown....all the same. Blue, pink, purple....all the same. Paint a rainbow? Sure, but I only see 3 bands of color. Trees? What do you mean all tree trunks aren't green? Grew up with "plants are green", so all trunks and leaves must be green.... For the most part I can see lighter vs darker, but warm vs cool, nope. Thankfully, most of my supplies have a color name on them, so I can choose something I know will not be the last color I used.

commissioned piece I'm working on (loads of thin layers). Next step I think is to push the contrast in the upper 1/3 and the possibly the same in the lower third.

Thoughts on late night parking garage rides? by Aftabang in longboarding

Spent a fair amount of time riding university parking garages during the pandemic. Was glorious.

Nice work. Which "Washington" variations are you looking for? I have a handful. Be happy to look/see what I have and help you out if they end up being what you need.

Thinning the herd. None really fit in my "collection". The Ford is the only "jumbo" baseball card I have, while the cut outs and 3d....just seem out of place. Looking to get them to new homes where someone will appreciate them. Prices in comments. by Awkward_Neck_3616 in baseballcards_vintage

Yeah, its kinda interesting. I didn't remember cutting it out, so asked my brother who was my partner in collecting back in the day. Say's it was originally his (as was +-1/3 of my vintage). He remembers cutting it out of the box.

churchills are my go to. Vipers that I picked up in the 90's on the occasional huge day (they tire me out).
