Absolutely fantastic video and showcase. Exceptional job Terry

Great video! Lovingly displayed cards. I love old Sport magazines. i have a few myself and really enjoy looking through them and reading some great articles. Thanks so much for sharing!

Loved the audio clips! Well done Terry.

This was fantastic, Terry! The '84 Dorsett is a favorite of mine. The cowboys and redskins has been a great rivalry. The cards connecting you to the players in the magazines connecting you to the games, perfectly said. I was one of those fans as a kid looking at the stats in the newspaper. That was one of my favorite things was grabbing the newspaper for my dad to check out how everybody did over the weekend. This definitely brought back some memories, and seeing your showcase with all those cards that I love was a real treat. Great players and great memories. Basically every card in your showcase is one that I feel a connection with. Hearing the quotes of the players was fantastic, this is one of my favorite videos of yours!

Another fantastic video Terry. Super SI that you picked up. So many great cards. The Music brought me back to the good old days of the NFL. I enjoyed hearing Howard Cosell. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Terry- you keep pushing the envelope and topping yourself with each subsequent video you create. Not that that has to always happen. I learn more from your videos about the players on your cards and some of the things you were doing then, than anywhere else. The addition of the music and play by play clips really enhances without distracting from the most important thing your stories memories and the cards. A lot of viewers might say that this era of cards isn’t worthy of being true vintage. But not I. You have an amazing collection of football cards of an era that matters to a lot of us out here the most: our early childhoods. They used to say in a now defunct toy store chain advertising: “the place to be a kid” Your channel is that place for me now. A place to be a kid again for a few minutes a week. Thanks for sharing Terry! CK

Terry, you know I loved this. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 The sounds of the time with TV broadcast music and commentary are so much a part of the era. It really sets the cards in an atmosphere. I liked that you connect the cards and magazines-how the cards remind you of players and the magazines bring specific games and moments to mind. Just awesome. 😄

Interesting you picked up a SI where your Cowboys lost. I actually have done the same with my Huskers. I have a Penn State/Huskers one where my team lost. We could only get two TV stations when I was growing up. I was lucky that my Vikings were on often despite not living near MN. I loved the music and the commentary you tagged with each person you spotlighted.

Glorious! Just loved every part of this well considered, well edited, and lovingly depicted video. As I have mentioned to you before, we share a similar time frame and nostalgia for exactly the same era of football and cards of that era. The 1979 Topps set is my favorite. You have one wonderful collection, Terry!

What an awesome video Terry. A lot of these players were just a little bit before my time, but a few of them i remember towards tbe tail ends of tbeir careers. Besides, Marino, Elway, Montana, etc... i am fortunate enough to remember them in their prime. Nice sound and music to to go along with sharing the cards. Always enjoy and thanks for sharing with us. Hope you have been well.

Awesome video thanks for sharing! Hope you have a great weekend 💪🏽

Gave a video like. Watched this video on my break today at work. Made my day. Great video, magazine, cards, and thoughts as always.

I was there with you! We have similar memories, although I was the only one in my family that cared about football. My dad took me to a Raiders game in the early 80’s Steve Largent with the Sea Chickens vs. Marcus Allen and the Raiders. What an awesome display and great work on the video. Happy holidays Terry

These are the years I have most of my football 🏈 cards in . Very nice showcase

Your cards, your magazines (newly acquired or inherited), the sights and sounds of those times and the stories you share of recalled memories keep me watching. Great video Terry.

MARVELOUS video, Terry! This video takes me back to the good ol'days! A Coke and a SMILE! Love the music and the sound bites of a time gone by. We didn't care what the values of our trading cards were. It mattered more if our team got a W on Sunday. Thanks for sharing ❤

Amazing video, cards and display Terry! That took me back to a time that was magical for me and sports. I remember that Dorsett 99 yard run lie it was yesterday! For my money he was the best Cowboy RB ever! Loved the hearing Cordell and the Monday night crew. Monday night football was huge back then and I watched it on our downstairs TV every week. Back then prior to the days of ESPN, Cordell halftime highlights were huge! Thanks for bringing back to those wonderful times my friend!

I remember so many of these things, thank you for bringing back these memories.

Hi Terry. Boy seeing those incredible cards and hearing those incredible clips, certainly took me back in time. Those Sundays were the best. Thanks for sharing my friend, talk soon pal.

That was awesome Terry! Lot of history in that video. I remember watching a lot of those events on TV

Great video. NFL films would be proud. I can hear "The autumn wind is a Raider".

Hi Terry! That’s a great looking Sports Illustrated with Riggins. And good for you as a Cowboys fan to want that memory. I’m not that mature. Books bring me to the games like magazines do with you. I really should read more of my dad’s old magazines. Your football collection is nothing short of perfection. This was so enjoyable to watch. Great job with the video and the music. You did really great with it. So good that you made Bert Jones climb my list of Colts cards I need to add.

Great video Terry, really beautiful displays. Thanks for sharing

Very nice Terry - always enjoy your channel 👍

Another great video, Terry! A definite walk down memory lane for me with John Riggins and Bert Jones. Always loved watching them play.

Hello Terry , great video ! I loved to watch your awesome cards collection and listen to the "footage" live commentaries. Great as a Cowboys fan you added "the Catch" footage...😉. I need this 1982 Topps Phil Simms card ! Happy sharing sports moments Terry and have a great day.

Hi Terry! Wow, this was great, my friend. You have an amazing collection that tells wonderful stories. By the way, I love your Marino rookie! Thanks for posting this, buddy!

AWESOME! Showcasing cards of those great players along with the music, you really captured the vibe of NFL football in the late 70s/80s here Terry! Hearing Howard Cosell always brings back great memories! Really cool to hear Belichick talk about Bert Jones too! Well done my friend!

Like #11! This really took me back, a number of these cards are in my collection as well. Loved the audio and music you put to this, I feel like I am sitting here back in the 70's and 80's. Really enjoyed the watch and appreciate the time travel. Thanks for sharing 👍👍until next time, have an awesome day Terry ✌out

Well done Terry. You invoked some real nostalgia there with your video.

Great looking Dan Marino rookie. It will always be my favorite

That’s GOLD Terry, GOLD!! You have struck a new winning formula in these new-style productions. You had me close to tears with the combination of your cards & those audio snippets & theme music from the past. Even Mr. Blowhard Cosell sounded great in his introductory soliloquies every Monday night game. We may be witnessing the next rendition of Ed & Steve Sabol NFL film productions 😉

Hey Terry, nice! Love what you did here. You really brought to life a particular period in the game with your cards, the music, the announcing, and your commentary. Each and every video you make conveys the personal meaning your collection has and the many stories it has to tell.

Awesome as always my friend 🎉

Another cool video! Love that Sawchuk card! I have the Howe and a couple others from that year as well. It’s a nice design with the eye appeal. Before my time but again, I really love hockey’s history.

Really enjoyed. Thanks for putting nostalgic music to it. Awesome

Hey Terry! I'm view 400! Sorry I've been MIA for a while. It's been crazy busy for me. So it's great to finally settle down and catch up on some videos. I remember every Fall getting so excited for cards to come out. That was especially true when Score and Pro Set joined in... And a year later upper deck and others. I think you've got a nice goal for your hockey collection. I'm tempted to collect one nice hockey card per year of the new NHL team here in Utah... Not sure yet but it could be fun. I love that Bathgate card 👍 Thanks for sharing, I always learn something from your videos 😊

Great video, as usual. Good advice for everyone. F O C U S

I also have that 69 Topps Lance Alworth what a great picture, he looks like the perfect all-American in the photo.

Wow that sounds like me. Over the years I’ve changed my views and now have many cards I don’t want or enjoy but I still love it and having fun selling trading and buying what I really want . I buy nostalgic cards every now and then and have a small player pc assortment . Best of luck in your journey and just enjoy it all the way. Thanks

So many wise words spoken here, Terry! My biggest takeaway and the thing that resonated with my collecting history the most is about making mistakes. I’ve started lots of different projects that I’ve never finished. I impulsively bought cards just to buy them. I’ve gotten a little too inspired by cards other have shown that don’t really fit my collection. Even with all of that though I have no regrets. All of that has built my collection into what it is today and it wouldn’t be the same without the mistakes to get me here. I always enjoy these thought provoking subjects Terry!

What a great perspective, thoughts and advice. You nailed it as always. You really touched home about people such as myself getting back into the hobby fairly recently. I was seeing all this amazing stuff and just kept buying it but it really didn’t mean too much to me. Then I sort of figured out what I want and what represent me and that my city. I’m passionate about my black and gold and want my collection to be a curation of just that. And as a lover of the games I like collecting the rookies or one or so cards of the hall of famers. Great stuff as always and love these types of videos. I know I wish I saw this 4 or so years ago! Glad you had a great holiday. Talk soon my friend!

Terry, some powerful and sage advice in your video, no doubt based on your 26 years of personal collecting experience! Thank you! Oh, and also, what stunning cards and magazines! Happy Holidays, my collecting brother! 🎄❄🎄❄🎄

Its easier to find the 1970 Topps in mint condition than the 71s. The 71s always show white sticking out from the corners because of the black borders . Nice video ❤

Thank you TJ. Of the people I follow in the hobby you are the wise ‘young’ Sage. 🙏 Happy Holidays to you and your family.

The card philosopher! I love cards with a personal story. I also love card runs of non-HOF players but have a meaning or connection to the collector. Thx for sharing.

Hey Terry! Another great video. To thine own self be true! I think if a collector is in touch with him or herself, each one should be able to verbalize, more or less how they collect. You know, I feel like I started my collection "today". After having given the lion's share of my collection away about 15 years ago, I pretty much started at ground zero back in 2018, with the very important distinction that I kept most of the really expensive cards I had from when I had collected earlier. But I approach collecting the same way I did back in the day, which is just to buy what moves me. And that means going down the occasional rabbit hole or buying something completely new that doesn't fit into a theme. I have a lot of different projects going on at the same time also. But I don't press to complete them. When I feel like going back to them, I do. If I don't, then that's as far as I was meant to take it. I hear a lot about focus in the TH-cam community. And I do think it's necessary, but I do think it can be taken too far. I'm not talking about you, but with some people, the way they discuss it, you might think they're studying for the bar exam. I kind of compare my approach to collecting to Dan Connor from the Roseanne show, working on his boat out in his garage. He may never complete it, but the important thing is he has access to that garage and can...dream. Now, to slightly contradict myself: there are some cards that I do want to get, and I will have to discipline myself (focus) and lay off the small purchases in order to obtain them. But I'm having so much fun getting those inexpensive cards. This makes it difficult to stop those purchases, as does also the fact that I value those small purchases just as much as the big ones. Anyway, that is something that I will address eventually. I agree with you 100% about some of the potential pitfalls or traps that new collectors have to be wary of if they are just starting out (or even if they're not) and start comparing their collections to others they may see on the net, or more specifically, TH-cam. For me, the best collections aren't the biggest and/or the most varied - or the most financially valuable. My favorites, even though they may not be what I might collect, are the ones that truly mean something to the collector. Another thing is, at this point, unless you really have the money, who needs a Babe Ruth? To me, that ship sailed long ago. I can look at his cards online or at shows, and there are plenty of books as well as films that one can see on TH-cam. The same thing with Mickey Mantle's 1952 Topps. I don't know if it's still true, but the last I heard, Mantle's surviving sons don't have the '52 Topps. If I got one, I'd like to give it to them and then we could all go out for dinner. As usual, I loved the cards and magazines you shared. That Tommy McDonald cover is great too. He is one of the players I have learned about through you.

Thanks for sharing your sentiments, Terry. I kinda wish you WOULD start over again so we can watch along. 😂

Hi Terry: A happy belated Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I hope the weather is kind to you as I can see a big storm hit your area this weekend. Loved the topic of this video. My favorite thing about your videos is that you are just showing and sharing your collection. You’re not here to be an influencer, you just want to share your collection and experiences as a card collector. There are too many on here now that have just veered away from showing their collections and now just trying to tell people what to buy. You won’t get me that way! Focus is important and you’ve definitely shown us this through your videos. I don’t think there is anything wrong with buying 15 years worth of baseball sets. It’s funny that we’re not concerned about the price, but the space or what a pain selling and shipping them are. When I first started watching you I loved the ideas of the key cards for each set. I told a friend your thinking a few years ago and he asked, well what are the 30 key cards? I said that’s for you (the collector) to decide. Anyone can do it, but people just tend to complain to you about your 30 picks as opposed to creating their own key cards. Interesting how today you wouldn’t buy the complete Frank Robinson run today but again just the 3-4 key cards. I wont say collecting is harder now its just a lot more expensive. Like you, there are things I did 10-15 years ago I won’t do now. Time, finances and resources have to go in another direction these days. You can still collect but just do it at a different level. I barely got to comment about your beautiful cards because I just started typing away as you started speaking. Haha. I like the uniforms that Bob Lilly and Greg Pruitt wore in their era’s plus they are just very nice cards. Love the Sawchuk card btw. Loved the video, Terry. Thank you for sharing!

Hello Terry, an other great video ! I enjoyed a lots to look at thoses beautiful cards and magazines and listen about your collectiong journey experiences. I am close about the regular "democratic" age of yours viewers...😄. Thanks you Terry for sharing yours collecting experiences and Happy Collecting.
