First cards
My first pack of baseball cards was 1988 Topps. My Dad brought it home to me and I had no clue what they were. I was unimpressed, perhaps because it was 1988 Topps.
 He had to tell me that collecting cards was something kids did and that he collected when he was my age. Then I found out some of my older friends down the street collected them, so I then thought it was cool.Ever since I was 9 or 10, I gravitated to the older cards. When I saved up my grass cutting money, I'd buy old beat up 50s commons from a local card shop. I remember liking the old Bowmans the best and my prized card was a 1954 Bowman Pee Wee Reese, that I still have today. I bought my first T206 after riding my bike around 10-12 miles up to a local outlet mall. There used to be a 'shop' in the middle of the mall, one of those stand alone stands. I bought a Schlafly and thought it was the coolest card ever. A week later, I went back and bought a Bush. I still have these cards and will never sell them.
