The details of my life are quite inconsequential ...
Card collector in the US, mostly into in-person (IP) and through-the-mail (TTM) autographs. Long-suffering fan of Cleveland's teams, plus North Melbourne's squads in both men's and women's footy. Mostly collect baseball and ice hockey, but also dabble heavily in indoor soccer and NFL football, less heavily in AFL football, NBA basketball, and auto racing. Co-host of a weekly podcast on autographs. Currently only had three successes in mailing to former AFL players.
... it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it.
