    Bit of a long shot, but the fans whose age was in single digits in 1985 were probably old enough to play Magic when it was released in 1993.

    I'm looking for the following cards and will offer prices comparable to auctions on Ebay:

    I would prefer Unlimited edition (white-bordered) cards, but will entertain offers for black-bordered (Alpha/Beta cards) as well.

    First, the really valuable stuff:

    Black Lotus
    Mox Sapphire
    Mox Jet
    Mox Emerald
    Time Walk
    Ancestral Recall

    Next, the sub-$100 but still valuable stuff:
    Mana Drain
    Tarmogoyf

    The cheaper stuff:
    Mox Diamond
    Leyline Of The Void
    Pithing Needle

    Yeah, all my friends and I were hardcore into Magic when we were in 6th and 7th grade. My best friend and I still play occasionally, and I've taught my fiance, who enjoys it now too. Way back when, one of my friends had a pricing guide, and I remember how we all hoped to get a black or black lotus in a booster pack.

    I still have a lot of really early cards, but I doubt any of them are worth much. Good luck in your search!
