This is how goofey my brother is, I come home in the Spring of 1982 with a set of t201 and grip of t205s and this doesn't inspire him to get into vintage cards, but a silly cigar label does :p

I was hooked on vintaged cards moment I saw them in the Beckett #2 Lee and I bought. Then when I got the book by Kieth Mitchell and Roger Erbe that gave more details about vintage cards, I was in for good.

The first vintage card I was bought was the set of t201s. The first show I ever attended was with my brother, but didn't buy any vintage cards. spent all my money on Pete Rose cards. I really wish I had bought the Harry Stovey OJ, but in 1981, $5 seemed outrageous for a non-HOFer from that set. There was alsoa nice t205 Matty there for $15.

Damn that Pete Rose
