my start
I opened packs of EVERYTHING starting in 1967. I got more into it in 1968/69 when I completed my first sets which were 1968 Topps BB, FB, and the hockey and basketball from the fall and winter. I opened lots of non-sports, too.
By the time 1969 arrived I was buying a dozen or more boxes of every series of Baseball to make up multiple sets. I continued opening packs and I still do today. My passion has always been in "older cards."
I started scouring the neighborhood for older cards in the late 60's and did quite well.
My favorite childhood sets are: 69 Topps BB, 68 Topps FB and 68-69 Topps hockey.
