This collection all started out in 1997 as a Celtics fan with a new RC on the blocks by the name of Antoine Walker. After starting on the idea of building a website showcasing all the cards, memorabilia and game worn items I began scanning around 5 years ago. The goal was to have every individual piece scanned, catalogued and in order and not to show the website until it was finally finished. Tonight I addded the final touches and I can say the website is finally complete!
This collection is 20 years in the making and along with the 2000+ cards, every piece of print media, figure, memorabilia I have ever seen and many game used items I'd like to think this is one of the most complete player collections from the 90s era.
As I started the collection I never thought about reselling or value growth in the items, it was purely a collection trying to amass every different card I could. I know I'll never get my money back but I don't ever plan on selling as the thrill of the chase and the other collectors I have dealt with along the way made it all worth while. Thats what cards are supposed to be about.....

Awesome site! Very organized. Does Walker have no 16-17 stuff?

Always loved me some Toine and watched damn near every Celts game he played.
I give your collection and site the wiggliest of wiggles.
Reporter: "Why do you shoot so many 3's?"
Walker: "Because there are no 4's."
Great stuff.

With so much attention on the craziness on other threads, this is the side of the hobby that needs to be celebrated. I truly enjoyed looking at a collection from a true collector. Very nice!!!

Very impressive collection and website - I enjoyed looking at it. I also wonder whether you have bought any recent years stuff (16-19). It seems Panini is putting him in a lot of new products.

Thanks guys much appreciated. There’s not a lot I need but some that come to mind are
98/99 Black Diamond Quadruple /150. I have never seen one in 20 years.... I think it may have suffered the fate of some other products that year and maybe certain player never packed out?
Hoops starting 5, also never seen one in 20 years.
I do have stuff from 16-19 and I try to pickup everything new that comes out but will need to scan and update them soon!
The past few years I’ve branched our more into more Celtics and vintage graded Celtics stuff. Maybe one day I’ll make a site for them too.

Beautiful website! A couple of other cards that came to mind are the Topps Opeechee cards. Those pop up on Ebay every once in awhile.
