Actually I really don't understand how my eight year old self could be anything but knocked out by my present day collection. The cards I admired in the schoolyard as an eight year old and then ended up collecting in 1960 are now at the core of my present day collection! These were the cards that enchanted me then - and still do now:
           I collect the same and similar cards these days to recapture the wonder and magic I felt holding and looking at them as an eight year old! The cards are a direct mental connection to my eight year old self. That's what collecting is all about for me. But because I have so many more of these 1960 cards, my eight year old self would be enthralled by my present day collection. Granted my younger self would wonder what possessed me to save the wrappers.
