The last time I seen my much older cousin was when I was 6-7 yrs old. He gave me all his cards, around 3-400 of them. They ranged from 61-66 and included several types including Topps, Post, Batman, Monster Laughs, and a few others. I still have most of them. I got them around 1975 and they just set in a dresser drawer for 10/11 years till my brother got me into collecting.

EDIT: After seeing Todd's 66 Mantle above I have a sad/funny story. Most of the 66 Topps cards I was left were in NrMnt just pulled from the pack condition. In my early 20's I was dating a girl and her little brother who was in about 7th grade knew I collected baseball cards and asked if I had any Mickey Mantle cards. I said I have an amazing 66 Topps card. He asked if he could take it to school the next day and like a dummy I said yes. When I got the card back it looked worse than the one in Todd's post.
