Another Card From My Past

I'm not trying to impress anyone with rare old baseball cards. I'm not that naive.
These are just items that turn up as I go through boxes of stuff that was my life.
I bought this card new in 1961.

I have 3 or 4 of this card, this is the best.

    I like it!

    I started buying packs in '62, but ended up with some '61 and older cards when a neighbor kid was trading his brother's cards for newer stuff he needed. image

    Having old cards that you actually purchased almost 50 years ago must bring back some great memories when you look at them.

    And no "Rubber-Band edges" unless that hit my generation ~ 1970.

    Growing up(Chicago suburbs),
    I seem to recall scrapbooks for pre-war, seeing boxes with 50-60's by set & rubber banded team sets in the 70's

    Thanks

    THAT is what a great part of this HOBBY should be all about!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
