Great cards, David! I have a similar story to yours, except I started about a decade before you did (mid-70s) and had even less money to spend as a kid, since I was never close to being able to afford any T206 HOFers or anything like that. But I did get back into collecting in the early to mid-90s, when I was no longer a kid and had a bit more money to spend (just a bit) and was able to build a decent prewar type collection. My collecting has been off and on since then, but until I joined this board a year and a half ago, I had no slabbed prewar cards, only raw. Welcome to the board -- I'm sure you'll like it here!
