What's in your grandmother's attic?

I've showed this once or twice before but it is perfect for this thread...

This was found in my grandmother's stuff. Her father was a HUGE Giants fan and wrote this letter home to his wife and baby (my grandmother's brother) after attending Game 1 of the 1923 World Series. Good thing he decided to send home the stub too!

About 25 years ago, my uncle told me my grandmother had a shoebox full of cards in her attic. He said "find them, and they are yours". Needless to say, I found them. 52s through 59s. No Yankees - my uncle would trade them for Red Sox. Best find was a 60% complete 1959 set. Condition was amazing. Several SGC 88s and 92s in the group. Finished the set about 12 years ago (with the discovery of ebay).
