What a great article! A real nice walk down Memory Lane for this ancient kid. A shoebox full of '50's Topps baseball, football, basketball and hockey, autographed Yankee scorecards, stacks of Superman comics, Mad magazines, my Rin Tin Tin bugle boy cap and my Davy Crockett coonskin hat - all landfill courtesy of Mom. Somewhere deep down inside my inner child is still pissed off.
A minor quibble: you might want to fix the reference to the 1910 Topp's throwback set.
