I need to figure out an intelligent #Nostr integration with what I've historically done with blogging on postwarcards.com. There seem to be options like Highlighter and Habla News. What are the current trends in Nostr "blogging"? #AskNostr #Blogging @⚡️ᗪㄖ匚⚡️ @Derek Ross

Good Morning #Nostr I just published a few words about the 1972 Puerto Rican Winter League sticker set and album on the blog:

1972 Puerto Rican Winter League Sticker Album And Complete Set – Post War Cards

But, before more hobby content, it’s time for a run! #Baseball #PuertoRico #RobertoClemente #Running

Good Night #Nostr Happy Collecting :)

I'm already making progress on this weekend's goals; I wrote one new piece for the blog and scanned a bunch of pages from the January 1980 issue of The Trader Speaks into my digital archives. One of my favorite things from back issues of TTS is seeing all the game's greats who were regular signers at card shows. Brooklyn's second Baseball Card And Sports Memorabilia Show had Cal Abrams, Gener Hermanski, and Billy Loes! #SportsCards #Dodgers #History

Cheers to the weekend! Sharing my goals for #Nostr accountability: - Two hard trail runs - Write 5 new articles for postwarcards.com - Write the intro to my sports card book - Share three “old” items from the hobby library with the community - Mess around with Nostr and #Bitcoin apps I haven’t used before But first…Disaronno (don’t judge me!) #SportsCards #Alcohol #Weekend #TrailRunning

This weekend’s hobby reading, Baseball Cards at the Edge of War #baseball #baseballcards #books

Today's Hobby Goals: - Write a short article about the 1938 OPC Horrors of War cards - Find one cool item to share from the famous April 2004 Non-Sport auction (they were mostly from OPC’s archives) - Get 10 recently graded SGC pre-war cards ready for eBay - Scan one vintage hobby publication for the archives, and to share with the hobby But first, a little spin on Zwift #TheHobby #Sports #Goals #ToDoList

Free Software! (Sort of...) I love how many collection manager tools there were in the early '90s! Hobby and technology nostalgia! #Software #SportsCards #Nostalgia

GM, Good People! I ran across this hilarious want ad in the April 1977 issue of The Trader Speaks from a collector looking for a 1947 Tip-Top Bread MIke Tresh card. #BaseballCards #Advertising #GoodMorning

When people in the #bitcoin space say “no keys” all I hear is gnocchis.

I'm so glad I committed (this AM, here on #Nostr) to scanning an old issue of The Trader Speaks because the back issue I chose, Feb. 1983, had a short write-up about my favorite basketball set, the 1971 Topps Stickers!

Potentially a 4 #Bitcoin sheet of basketball cards. Wrote about its history a bit on the blog:

1970 Topps Basketball Full Uncut Sheet With Three Maravich Rookies – Post War Cards

Shakira said “you know my hips don’t lie.” Same here, mine are feeling a little sore, likely from too much running, so I’ll step back and take tomorrow off. Listen to your body!

Today’s Hobby Goals: - Research 1947-66 Exhibit Baseball cello pack distribution - Scan a back issue of Trader Speaks and Sports Cards Mag - Scan an old Life Magazine to support an article I’m writing about the Horrors of War set - Get one “large” set ready to be listed on eBay - Help a collector with info about that Larry Bird sheet I shared yesterday for his youtube video #TheHobby #SportsCards #Baseball

GM Nostr! Yesterday, I shared a 1950 Topps Bring ‘Em Back Alive One-Cent display box, so today, I figured I’d share the box for the set’s sequel, 1951 Topps Animals of the World! This set is designated R714-1 by the American Card Catalog, and the cards featured artwork by Mary Lee Baker. They came as singles (1 card per pack for a penny) and perforated 2-card panels (6 cards/5-cent pack), and the panels command a premium. Also, the cards issued as singles have white cardboard stock on the back, while the panels have gray cardboard on the back. #NonSportsCards #Zoo #Collect #TheHobby

This evening's reading: The July 1993 issue of Sports Cards Magazine! I'm curious about which steroid-pumping ballplayers they thought were Hall of Fame locks at the time! #Baseball #RogerClemens #SportsCards #ReggieJackson #BaseballCards

From the collection of Christopher Sanchirico, one of the only uncut sheets of 1987-88 Fleer Basketball to ever have surfaced. #basketball #sportscards #larrybird

Thinking about the best ways to pivot how I contribute to the sports card hobby given what #Nostr and #Bitcoin are and can be 🤔
