I collected cards when I was young (in the late fifties/early sixties), and stopped when I discovered girls. In the late eighties, my son, then in first grade, asked to go to card shows. While he looked for current stars, I reacquired my long lost collection. Then I tripped over the good stuff - cards two or three generations older than I.
My son lost interest after a year or two. But mine has grown, along with my collection. I love the Obaks, because they include Northwest players. And I can't help buying any old cards picturing Jewish players.
Happy collecting!
