They guy that walked away with the grocery bag fullest or shoe box full of cards ruled.
That all said, it is sad the cards I played that with. I don't want to name the names on my cards when I did this in the very early 70's. Makes me want to cry.

My dad used to stick his baseball cards in his bicycle spokes. He said he could have sold some of them for a lot of money. But when you're a kid, you'd rather have fun with them than lock them away hoping the value goes up.

Thanks, mom.
