Back in the '50's, when I was a young "snapper",
I bought Topps & Bowman and threw away the wrapper.
I kept the cards & the gum, the latter to chew,
and the cards went into a box--I never "threw"!
My teeth rotted away & today I have none,
but I always enjoyed just chewing the gum!
The cards I still had until recent days
when I sent most out to auction @ REA's!
I got a good price from "1-penny" cards,
but letting them go remains very hard.
The moral of the story: If you have a collection--
don't sell them off w/out thorough reflection!
