I remember bits and pieces of my first birthday, but can't remember the first time I saw a sports card. The earliest I remember seeing them was in the late 80s when my dad was selling them in his shops. My dad remembers selling baseball cards as a kid in his father's gas station back in the 50s/60s. He also remembers his dad occasionally opening s jar of mayonnaise, skimming the surface with a knife, spreading it on a sandwich, and then putting the jar back on the shelf for sale.
