Jim Caple of ESPN wrote an interesting article about baseball cards recently. He speaks about the joy brought by the ancipation of opening a pack of baseball cards. This is really what it’s all about, isn’t it?

A 1952 Mickey Mantle baseball card, #311, graded PSA 5.5, sold on eBay for $16,500 this past week.
