Sept.30, 1962 The Card Collector....type collecting
Posted By: leon
My good friend John Esch has been nice enough to let me copy some old hobby publications, as I have mentioned before. Every now and then I will share something I have read. As mostly a type card collector I find it interesting that they even did it 45 years ago. The Author of this article Card Notes, by Ed Curtis, says he even collected things associated with the cards (as per his statement at the end of the article). I was 1 yr and 29 days old when this article came out.....I didn't take the time to crop out the other parts of articles, sorry about that.. |

It's amazing how long Larry Fritsch has been in the hobby. I liked the story about how kids would hold the 33 Goudey packs up so they could see which player was inside, and the stores that were most lenient about this got the most business. |

I find it interesting that the term "mint" was used back then to describe the condition. |

Pretty surprising that the article lists Yeunglings as among the most difficult sets ever. And only 6 or 7 known Wagners? I guess the rest came out of the woodwork when the value went up. But somehow the Four Base Hits cards have not been coming out of the woodwork since their values went up. |
