This "beauty" was part of my childhood collection that, fortunately for me, Mom didn't toss into the trash after I left home, got married and started a family (she was going to do this but decided to call me first to ask if I wanted them - as they say, "the rest is history")! I started collecting in 1955, so I would have acquired this card via either (1) a trade - not likely, as I wouldn't have been interested in an Aaron card back then, or (2) winning it from a collecting buddy in one of the game we played to win each other's cards - this is most likely, based on the condition of this card! Even though it is only in fair condition, it is priceless to me!
