Sports Collectors Store Memories
I used to take two buses for about 10 miles from the southwest side to get to the store. We went there a lot in the winter in the mid 1970s since we tended to have nothing to do on weekends.
They had so many cards along every inch of the wall. I remember that we asked for a 1963 Fleer Clemente and they pulled out a box that must have had at least 400 of them.
I spent lots of time buying damaged cards that were 25 cents. 1950s stars were always in there. If I went alone I usually spent my bus money so I'd walk/run home.
