The 20-20 hindsight from our childhood, with respect to cards, would have been great. I know I had piles of late 60s and very early 70s cards strewn everywhere. I wish I had kept some. I sold everything for 50 bucks to the kid I got Bar Mitzvahed with, he was the smart one obviously.

Of course if I were really smart (and had a crystal ball) I wouldva saved my grass cutting money and bought boxes of 1961 7th series with all the All-Stars.
