Not the most valuable
My favorite trade I ever made was as a 9 year old ... I traded for a 1958 Ted Williams AS card. NO CLUE what I traded for it ... but the best card I could have even possibly had at the time was a beat up George Brett rookie (and I'm pretty sure I traded that for a Walter Payton rookie) ... so I probably traded a fistful of Johnny Bench and Pete Rose cards from the 1970s for it.
Still remember riding home on my bike as fast as I could to show it to my dad!
He thought I made out on the trade ... and even if I didn't ... that's all that matters.
[Oh, and while I've upgraded many cards from my childhood - that one is going NOWHERE!]
Cheers,
Patrick
