  • A few days ago I purchased a small collection of sports cards that were stashed away inside of a grimy, old suitcase and binders. In today’s video I'll be combing through it all in search of any possible big name rookie cards.

    Emmit Smith rookie is a few bucks. That Pro Set card back in the day was my first good pull. However being so new to the hobby and sports I was hustled on the school bus for it in a crooked trade. 😆 Lesson learned. It was worth more back then. But I still don't have one. 🙄
