My family has had a Sunday home game Yankees ticket plan for as long as I can remember. When I was little my dad used to take me and my brother to the games 4 or 5 hours before they started so we could watch the players come in and try to get some autographs.
Sometime in the early 90s he took me to a Gloria Rothstein show to get some autographs from a couple of Yankees who were doing appearances. That was the first time I ever saw pre-war cards and I bought a Miller Huggins T206 Hands at Mouth and a Matty White Cap. I think I spent $100 total that I had left over from my Communion. Hooked ever since.
