First bought packs in 1959 (age 8) after mom brought home a shoe box full of 1956 Topps baseball and 1955 Topps All-America football from a rummage sale. Heavy in 1960-1962. Less so in 63, then big in 1964. Nothing after that until 1981 when Fleer-Donruss challenged Topps.

I first started buying packs in 1966. A friend and I would ride our bikes over to the local drug store and buy them. This continued until he moved away in 1970. So my peak years were from age 9 to 13. I didn't see the cards again until the 1980s when my parents moved and my Mom made me take them (at least she didn't throw them away!). It wasn't until 2001 when I discovered EBay and decided to finish a few of those sets that I got back into it and the rest is history.
