This month, I picked up a complete run of Topps Magazines from 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1993. Each came with the original uncut panel/sheet promotional cards and checklist photos; some even had their original mailing protective bags. The entertaining and diverse articles and pictures in this magazine will have an influence on this blog for quite a long time.

Despite February being a short month and my IRONMAN training picking up in mileage, I still found myself working on the blog quite a bit, so besides the bi-weekly blog articles, I made 18 updates to the two archives too.

Since I read so many vintage sports columns and blogs, I thought I would help curate some of the best writing, so I started sharing a weekly thread called “This Week’s Best Hobby Writing” over on Twitter. Be sure to follow me there for updates each Friday.
As always, thanks for reading PostWarCards, and if there is ever a topic you’d like me to write about or a set you’d like me to prioritize for either archive, please reach out to me.
Happy collecting!
