Default Vintage Cards in the Movies

Posted By: J Levine

One of my all-time favorite baseball movies is Sandlot. In the movie there are several interesting things featured...One of my favorites is at breakfast they pour cereal from a complete box of Sugar Crisp with a complete back panel of Post cards.

They have '62 Topps cards tacked to a treehouse as well.

The Ruth signature ball is featured as well as a wealth of older memorabilia in James Earl Jones' characters house including balls, pennants, trophies, and photos.

One of my favorite scenes of all time occurs in Big where the two boys go to the corner store buy packs of Topps, open them, eat the gum, and say "need it, need it, got it, got it...etc.)....I did that almost every day for nearly 4 years with my two friends Mark and Zach.
