Back in the mid 1990s, when I was writing a monthly column for Baseball Hobby News, I wrote about the thrill of opening my first pack of cards in 1959. I talked about the thrill of opening hundreds of packs in 1960 and 1961 and how great it would be to go back in time and open one more of those vintage packs. Turns out, I didn't have to. One kind dealer enjoyed reading the column and sent me an unopened 1960 pack. Hall of Famer Early Wynn was the third card in the pack.
