It was the early 60's - saw an ad in the Sporting News for a subscription to the Sport Hobbyist. Every new subscription received a "free 50 year old baseball card."

I subscribed and with my first issue - there was an ex condition T206 neatly stapled inside the front cover of the issue. So much for condition concerns in the early 60's. Don't know what happened to that card, but have since replaced it with many others.

Also, still have several of their "famous card series" reprints that they used to send out.

Those were the days my friend..........
