Buying Baseball Cards from the mid 70's to the mid 1990's with my Dad at Flea Markets in NJ and PA at Columbus NJ Collingswood NJ, Englishtown NJ, Lambertville NJ Neshanic NJ and Peddlers Village PA back in the late 70's
Also my Dad worked for a Borough in central NJ and a couple of times he came home with baseball cards in cheese boxes from the 60's. Nap Lajoie was from Lambertville NJ

My brother bought me a box of 1969 Topps baseball cards for my 15th birthday and opened all the packs and found two Mantle's which I still have and had one signed. Threw the box and wrappers away though back then.
