Cleaned out the garage today!

I helped my father clean out his garage today and came across a nice suprise. We found an old trunk of "stuff" from his childhood and decided to crack it open to see what was inside. He said he would consider selling all of it if anyone is interested but I mainly wanted to post pictures of these cool finds! Very nice suprise! Let me know what you think!

Below are some pics of about 30 different Sporting News magaizines he bought when he was young. Also are some photos of ball players such as Spahn, Robinson, Eddie Mathews, Clemente and a few others. The last pictures are of wrappers. Not sure of the year. Anyone? enjoy!

Where are the cards that were in those wrappers...

The cards are in a safe place; removed many many many years ago

cool find although I suspect that the sentimental value to your father would far exceed what can he could expect monetarily....

My dad has a very wonderful collection of Vintage cards. For some reason he wasn't to thrilled about keeping this stuff. I know that vintage wrappers can fetch a nice price, but am not sure what these would go for with the condition.

Isn't that Frank Robinson picture the same picture that's on his 1957 topps card? I'd be interested in buying it. How much do you want for it? Either way, thanks for posting your really cool find!!

My dad has no idea what these are worth. Make an offer and I would be glad to check with him.
