I've enjoyed reading this thread, Eric. I still have many cards from my childhood, including what was most prized to me then, an Ozzie Smith rookie.
I'm reminded of the days when I used to stop at the baseball card store on the way home from school and then immediately check the paper for the previous day's box scores when I got home. And that connection between the season starting and knowing that the school year would be ending before long and summer to follow... memories!
