When most didn’t realize back scarcity ( I didn’t) and just collected T206’s. How about scores and scores of unsold 1986 Fleer Basketball at $15 a box and Namath rookies for under $100.
1990 ish bumper stickers I’ll trade you my house for 1952 Topps set. (Valued at $40k) then.
Many phases of olden days in my collecting years starting in 1966 when at 10 years old I opened my first pack of wax. Monster Laffs.
What a time to be alive! Is there a word for being nostalgic for a time you didn't get to experience? Because if there is, that totally fits the bill, for what I'm feeling.
