Down memory lane...1974 dealer price list

Joe P's message about flipping made me think of the version we had when I was a kid and first buying baseball cards....though these cards are a bit off topic for this forum, some of you in your mid-40's probably remember the game we played with our '68 and '69 Topps, the cards that had the colored circles enclosing the team name...you and your opponent would alternately flip cards from your respective face-down piles onto a center face up pile...whenever two cards matched in color (i.e. Tigers and Cardinals or players from the same team) the guy putting the second card down took the whole stack. No telling how many Ryan rookies I gambled away. To this day, if someone names a team I can still recall the color of that team's colored circle on those cards.
