In the early 70's when I was a youngster, an elderly woman at our church was selling her home and moving into a nursing home. Her husband had died awhile before, but she still had his baseball cards when he was a kid. I calculate being a "kid" would have been around 1910.
She knew I collected cards and asked me if I wanted his collection. Without even looking at them I said, thanks, but I only collect modern day players.
Oh how I wish I didn't say anything and took them. They ended up in the trash.
