When I was eight I loved collecting baseball card sets and I loved “older cards”( I had gotten cards going back to 1948 from a relative whose son no longer wanted them). So, I think mini me would appreciate what I have. What would confuse him is why people put cards into plastic holders and why people pay people who know less than them about cards what their cards are worth. Come to think of it, that confuses me too.

My eight-year-old self would say, "WTF (he'd use the actual words, though) is with all of that WAR crap with card collectors in the future????!!!"
Then we'd both laugh and high five each other. Friends to the end!!

My eight year old (1970) self would have been amazed at all the cards of Ruth, Gehrig, Williams etc. and especially all my Yaz cards; did not pull a regular Yaz out of a pack until 1972.
He'd be even happier that I have a dog :-)
