Jim Thorpe

ackuhl22 · 10-07-2021, 01:51 PM

I was a huge collector in the 80’s but even as a kid focused on vintage cards. I did a book report on Jim Thorpe in grade school and was a collector of his ever since. Just sent my first born off to college a couple of months ago (WAR EAGLE!) and am now moving some rooms around, taking over his bedroom as my office. Looking through boxes today and thought I would share (show off) some of my favorites.

Great collection! I've got the T200 card, that's the only Thorpe in my collection...would love to get that All American card some day, I love that set.

Awesome collection, congratulations.

Only a couple in my stash, and I'm sure there is a story behind those 2005 Absolute jerseys......
