Son got me hooked in 1979, because I had to accompany him to the bb card shop with his $5 allowence each week. He quit after three years; I didn't. Had to sell almost all of them in 1989 to support family, and then got into 19th century cards.
My first card: "Chris, why don't you buy that one?" "But MOM--it costs a whole dollar!" "That's O.K. I'll pay for it..." Beginning of the end...



Last card:

Not 19th century, as it happens...
