Default 1972

I remember ordering the 1972 Topps Baseball set through the Sport Hobbyist.
When I received the set there was an issue of the old Sport Hobbyist with a article about the Detroit show, I wanted to go so bad but I was only 15, being from Connecticut my parents would've never let me go, included with the sport hobbyist was a couple of the diamond matchbooks from the 1930's, I still have the set, the sport Hobbyist and the matchbooks. I'll always remember the picture of Frank Nagy in his basement with I think a viceroy cigarette in his mouth.
