When I was very young I ordered the TCMA 1936-39 Yankee Dynasty set through an ad in Baseball Digest. It's really not a bad set but I was pissed when I realized the cards weren't actually from the 1930s.
The first time I bought a real card was at a comic book convention in NYC around 1976. I picked up a mint 1958 Whitey Ford for $0.35. I also bought a '63 Wilhelm for a quarter and a January '62 Mad magazine w/a drawing of two fighting Santas by Don Martin on the cover for a dollar. Those were the days.
