Tomorrow I plan on going antiquing. I would enjoy discovering some vintage cards, or just some nice cards in general. Aside from barns and other houses, where else could these cards be hiding?

Where are you located waz? I will occasionally find vintage cards in antique stores here in Minnesota... but they always seem to be overpriced or fake!!! I've picked up a few m101-2,s and an m101-3 cobb...funny only m cards!!

I'd be hiding at a local garage or estate sale.

Who knows, it should be a fun adventure. A Cobb sounds great by the way!

I'd be hiding in grandpa's attic! But who's grandpa?

Spokes of an old bicycle? :)

Ha ha...funny timing on this thread as I was cleaning my gross basement yesterday and in a box of ex gf's stuff...I find a t206 G Browne(Chi) and a silk M Browne. So vintage cards can be anywhere!!!!!

Seems like strange things are turning up at flea markets; here's an article about a Renoir bought for $7 recently. Apparently stolen 60 years ago.
