[oldcardboard]

It was 1979,I was an 8 year old at a local card show. Dad and I always went to as many as we could. He collected t206 and some "E" series sets,and cracker jack. I bought my usual pack or 5 of the usual baseball/football issues(78-79).

The highlite of my collecting though was my dads cards. They were like little treasures, I loved sitting at the table looking at his cards. He always said the old tobacco and candy series were the most beautiful cards made. I agree. He loves misprints,miscuts,and printing anomalies. I started in the late 80s collecting the same cards. I collect only HoFers and anomalies. My dad started collecting coins in early 90s and I slowly started "liquidation" process of his cards into my collection.

I am hooked for life. Love collecting t206.
