How even more obsessed you'd be with your pre-war cards if you actually grew up collecting/owning these cards & watching these players on tv or dareIsay in person? Actually, opening cigarette packs with Ty Cobb's etc, inserted in them?

I collect mostly vintage 50s-70s bb and love them to death yet didn't even grow up watching these players. Instead I watched Barry Bonds and Griffey Jr during the mass production of cards + steroid era...

Scary thought to think how obsessed I'd be on cards if I actually watched Ty Cobb, et al not to mention busting his cards out of cigarette packs as a boy. Yikes
