HEY ALL!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY James Marshall Hendricks !!!! Still after his death, 43 later, he IS STILL considered the best Rock and Roll guitar player of all time!! R.I.P. Jimi !! There is a new book out about Jimi, Hendricks on Hendricks. It is written from a guy who has spent his life researching Hendricks. When asked how he found Jimi, his reply was " Oh no, Jimi found me! I turned on the radio one day, went to one of the FM stations and there he was, and I was hooked from the first note." WOW Now don't get me wrong, the Rolling Stones are the greatest rock band, and I would rate them as 1.a, and Jimi Hendricks is 1.b. I will bet that new book would make a great Xmas gift for someone?? Just saying!! Anyway no luck with eBay sales yesterday. Time to shake it up a little. there is still some stuff I have not listed and need to now. When Topps came out with their " Heritage " line it was a BIG seller. The cards are made up and out of old paper stock from the 50's and 60's, but they put modern day players on the cards. Very cool to see Ichiro on a 1954 style card! Topps also made the sets with the same "flaws" in them that the original sets had. Wrong color team names, miss spelled names etc, etc. So now those cards are Short Prints, and have some value. Well a complete set can bring some good money. Topps also made the last 100 cards or so short prints to copy the last series in those older years. So I have sets from 2001 to 2008, time to list them. CHOW MOI
