Just joined after going through my stuff recently so I figured I’d post some here. I’ve had some of these stashed away in my attic and closets for years and I’ve contemplated starting to sell some.

The 61’s(I have about 50-60) were my grandfather’s and 35 years ago I put most of them in top loaders or snap cases just because they were old and I figured I should. Everything else is mine from buying gum packs as a kid or going to shows with friends in my teens/20’s. I have all Topps regular sets from 83-92 and a couple of Traded sets from the mid 80’s. The crease through the Mantle is the way I found it and the worst of all of the 61’s I have. That one makes me sad.

Finally got a chance to get out again with the h-alpha solar setup. Just a couple of cell shots. Lunt LS60MT DS, iPhone 16 mounted directly to the eyepiece.

A nice session last night getting a few nebula shots. PVS-14(36.4 SNR, EBI 0.6, PS 2420). 4” refractor and iPhone 16 mounted direct to the monocular. Taken with the Astroshader app.

Our boy just chilling, not a care in the world except those damn woodchucks.

Did a nice session last night through a list of about 20 edge on galaxies and a few globular clusters. I snapped a few photos as I was observing. The view in the eyepiece is about what these photos show including the new SN in 5907. Handheld iPhone shots with the Astroshader app. Bortle 8, 20” dob, night vision, 30mm APM UFF(68x) and 685nm IR pass filter.

Our little nutty furball is 12 years old today and still acts like he’s 2. Happy birthday Kenji!
