Vintage finds ARE still out there to be found

I know alot of us have wondered about the amount of vintage cards still out there to be "found." Here is a story that happened to me today. As some of you know, I am an Athletic Director at a high school. I was at an AD meeting with the 2 other AD's from our school district and our boss...who oversees the 3 of us in our district.. He is 69 years old. Me and one of the other AD's who also collects were talking about cards..when my boss chimes in telling us that his sister called him and wanted to know what she should do with his trunk of stuff that was still at his mothers house who recently passed away. He said that the trunk is in Florida, so he hasn't gone through it, but he said that it was his childhood belongngs. He said that his baseball card collection was in there....and that he knows that he has 1948's through the mid fifties! My jaw just dropped. He knows didly about cards..so I advised him to make sure that he has me or the other AD who knows about their value appraise them before he does anything with them so not to get ripped off. I can only imagine????

My father in law thought he had some cards from the 50's in his attic, but he didn't. Man to come across such luck! Let us know what he's got in that golden stash!
