Also I want to mention that when you ask someone at a garage sale for something, try to be as generic as possible. Also remember that the people will not know all terms that exist in the hobby or maybe any of them. So I wouldn't specifically ask for football cards, but more like say "football stuff from the 60s" or something.
You need to judge the age of the person selling before using certain words. Asking for "old" things will get you a wide range and likely not what you want. One time I remember asking for "old cards" resulted in a box of beat up 1993 Pinnacle football cards.
