In Fairfield Connecticut where I lived until the 4th grade before moving to Philly, a neighbor of ours who had a son my age I was friends with, worked for Topps. He would occasionally bring home uncut sheets for his son to cut up for cards. Occasionally his son would share an uncut sheet with his friends to cut up. It was a madhouse as about 3 or 4 of us would sort of grab the "big" sheet and begin cutting - FREE BASEBALL CARDS - it didn't get any better than that! - LOL
Below is one I personally hand cut from one of those sheets with one of those little scissors. Needless to say I never became a tailor - LOL.

If that happened these days, the school would be on lockdown and you'd be in juvie.

Actually if it happened today I would have an assault rifle in my 1st grade cubbie hole. Schools are rough you know.

I like the ones that are stamped LEFTY.

Nice story. I find it even cooler that you saved the card all those years
