Description
I found this afternoon around 2:15 pm in the parking lot behind the RiverCenter on 3rd Street in Davenport, Quad Cities. It’s a red vinyl, 3-ring binder about 9x11 inches, stuffed with roughly 40 Topps baseball cards from the late 1980s. The cover is scuffed, and a blue rubber band is wrapped around the pages to keep them in order. Inside you can spot a mix of rookies and stars from 1987–1990, with a few cards showing creases but most are decent for a casual collector. I figured someone else might be missing this and would really want it back to complete their set.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
