Type: Rookie Card
Acquired: Bought Online?
I can't quite remember how I acquired this card, but it was always on my wish list when I was a kid. The only thing keeping me from getting it back then was the price. I did not get a huge allowance and any card over $5 had to be approved by my Dad. Every now and then he would chip in and get us a more expensive card if he knew it meant a lot to us, but he never did with this card. Not sure why? I do remember him springing for a 1991 Upper Deck Todd Van Poppel rookie card though. Wonder what he was thinking there?
It's hard to fault your dad on the Van Poppel, everybody thought he was gonna be the next big thing... EVERYBODY!
ReplyDeleteI still have that card and think of him every time I see it. It may be worthless now, but the memories attached to it are priceless.
