My wife's family owns a few rental apartments, and a renter left boo-koos of sports cards - baseball, basketball, & football. Are those cards worth anything, or do you have to look up every player to see if it's just recycle paper, or of some value? There appear to be some from the late 80's, but mostly from 90 and up to 92. I collected baseball cards when I was a kid - the ones that had a sheet of that hard bubblegum with it. That was in the early through around the mid 60's, and I suppose I had had some that might be of value now, except we played with them, and I gave all I had to my older brother. (They were all stolen years later when someone broke into his apartment while he was in college.) Some cereal boxes also had baseball cards on them, and we cut those out and kept them, too. Seems to me that this is an example of a child's collector/'toy' item that was ruined when adults got involved. There must be thousands of these cards from this guy's apartment after he moved out. I just wonder if I should just throw them out, or what. (I have already spent quite a bit of time straightening them out, as they were all thrown together in huge garbage bags. Some are still in the 'collector boxes' they were sold in. But all are pretty much in new condition.)
