Brian's book
I just wanted to add my own recommendation for this book. I bought it a little over a year ago, and I've been reading it constantly.
I grew up at the tail end of the period covered, and have great memories of pulling cards out of Frosted Flakes and Danish Go-Rounds, and buying Milk Duds and Bazooka Gum to add cards to my collection.
Since buying this book, I have added examples of many of the sets Brian talks about. I have obtained some Shirriff hockey coins, and my first Beehive photo is on it's way from the Great White North.
I was also the winner of the two different Roberto Clemente Dexter Press (Coca Cola) Premiums in Al's latest LOTG auction.
Prior to the book, I was lucky enough to get a Home Run Derby card from Chris (bestdj777), right here on Net54.
I can't recommend this book enough for anyone with an interest in baseball and baseball cards from the 50's to the 70's.
