Gum
I have been collecting since 1958. My Topps sets from 1958 to 1971 were mostly put together by packs. I treasure those bubble gum stains and the memory of the smell of the cards coming out of those packs
My worst gum experience was in putting together the 1981 Topps Thirst Break Comic set. It involved sports comics ( it involved multi sports including baseball) wrapped around green slimy gum. The gum seemed to get slimier over time. To finish the set I bought an "un opened" box. It took forever to clean the comics I needed
