I was eight years old in 1958. I'd have been astonished to know that Casey Stengel was ever young.

When I was eight years old, the 1963 Topps Mays #300 was my favorite card. Here it is in all its original glory. Carried the card with me everywhere. Still mint.😂

Me from 14 months ago wouldn't believe how my collection has changed (before I joined Net54 and caught the vintage bug).

At 8 years old, I don't think I knew what a baseball card was. At about age 10, my family moved to a nearby town where by the kids in my new neighborhood introduced me to both baseball and baseball cards. I was 11 when I got my first baseball cards - 1955 Topps. By 1956, I was an avid card collector.
