I grew up in Norfolk, Va. I collected seriously for only one year - 1961 - and bought most of my cards at People's Drug Store. Like others, I relied on deposits from discarded soda bottles and change I could cajole from my dad, who thought I was wasting money. I figure the entire set cost me less than $10. Thankfully, my mom never tossed it out. It resides in a loose-leaf binder in Ex-Mt and brings back wonderful memories. Mark
