Im likely selling rather than keeping going ... the cards are from my Grandfathers extensive collection.
Im in my 40s.. My Grandfather was born in 1898 and so he was 10 to 13 during the tobacco card heyday. He died in 1968.. I've got 200 plus 205s, 206s, and red border 210s.. all cards from the collection he started as a boy. I can remember playing with his collection at 5 or 6 in 1970/71. My Grandfather loved Ty Cobb.. there are 2 Cobbs but those are not for sale.
My grandfather was slated to play minor league ball as a young man but threw out his arm when he was 19... he became a banker and businessman in the Dallas area.
