I grew up in Chicago and the Chicago area. As a boy I started collecting
baseball cards in the early 70’s and was hooked early in life.
By early 2000 I had most of the Hall of Fame baseball players cards
from 1954-1985, and some that went all the way back to 1915. There were
also a few major stars rookie cards from other sports (Wayne Gretzky,
Walter Payton, and Michael Jordan).
In 2002 my business career came to a cross road and determined I needed
to sell my baseball cards to gain capital. So I came to a difficult
decision. Question I had asked myself was, if I was going to sell all
the cards and keep just one player, who would it be? We’ll this
is dedicated to the one player I saw in my lifetime who showed a winning
attitude day after day after day in his profession and I wanted to model
my business career after that drive and determination to succeed.
