Homeskoolin’ Volume Area Code 615, “Chief Wahoo”

Chapters
00:00 - Topps baseball cards


Notes
Uncle Larry shows the class an absolutely GORGEOUS complete set of 1971 Topps Baseball cards.

I am ABSOLUTELY SURE this video will bring back some fun memories for all you guys out there who are old like me.

This set is known by collectors as being a particularly difficult set to find in high grade condition due to the black borders…it was also Topps earliest foray into “action shot” cards and also the first time they ever put the players photo on the back of the card.

People think i am ONLY into old football cards…but i have a KILLER 1973 Topps baseball set as well…as well as nice complete conservative sets of Topps Baseball between 1975 and 1983

As far as my well documented football card obsession goes, I have beautiful complete sets by all four companies (Topps, Bowman, Philadelphia Gum, and Fleer) between 1954 and 1980

Also, this video is rather sad…the sweet French boys at Collision Devices are having a very hard time because of tariffs from the “Orange Man”…

They wanted me to share it with you

I’m telling you guys right now…if you like music, and you DON’T own a collision devices black hole symmetry pedal I truly feel sorry for you

Pick your favorite bone from the late spring line-up of 30’s Martins that are piling up at the Homeskoolin’ Industries headquarters nerve center….warehouse…station….place.

These guitars were all built in the same factory within a year from each other, yet they are so COMPLETELY different..I even threw a bad ass old piece of Parsons Street history in there so you can compare that too
