For me it was 1955 Topps Double Headers. To my 9-year-old eyes they were just weird.
None of my friends liked them either and our neighborhood grocer, Mr. Green, couldn't sell any to save his life. At one point he offered to sell me his entire stock for $1.00 a box, but I was too smart for that.
Later I grew to appreciate them, especially after I discovered T201s. Mr. Green, if you're reading this, I've changed my mind.
