Welcome

Wait til Next Year . . . is making a come back.

I am going to mix a bit of the philosophy of my life into this blog as I continue to highlight some of my baseball card collection. (hoping the card collectors of this world welcome me back)

Its been a tough 18 months for me . . . the Chicago Cubs have had it rough as well.


This site will be devoted to all those who need to define what "wait til next year" means.

  1. Steve,

    You've got the first and the last already. Now just to fill the middle.

    It is a 110 card set, plus a checklist.

    In 1989 Pacific Trading Cards produced...wait for it...Pacific Legends II, numbered 111-220, plus the required checklist.

    1990 brought the return of Pacific Legends. Another 110 card set. Several players from the first two sets are repeated. I don't know if the photos are repeats, but the players are.

    Then, PTC produced a few Senior League sets. Then they publicly put displayed their affection for Nolan Ryan.

    There you go.
