Best of 1978
1978 was also my first year of collecting - like others, I knew that set backward and forwards, could guess any card's # and come within 10 either way, etc. Because it was my first set, I had never heard of most of the players or several teams...the Mariners? Where do they play?? I was 10 and baseball cards made me a fan of baseball, and not the other way around as it might have been for most. As for my favorites, I have to start with the very first cards I ever owned - got them as a panel in Dynamite Magazine that April - here they are (the Dynamite panels were 6 cards...just my luck I got two DPs).
