PaulI started collecting cards in ther late 60's when I was a kid, & a huge Mets fan. Collected cards from packs at the store, & chewed up all the gum I could. About 1980 I put all my cards (thousands of them) in a huge box with no lid in our attic, & started concentrating on rock-n-roll & girls 
While my cards were up there, we had a cat who would climb the ladder into the attic, & hang out there for long stretches of time. Hmmm, wonder what he was using for a litter box?
Everyone of my cards were stuck together in one big clump of piss!!! Started again collecting the shiny stuff on & off until the mid 90's when I went to a card show at Los Arcos Mall in Scottsdale. I bought some T206's of Johnson, Tinker, & Cobb. I was amazed how interesting they were compared to the new stuff, & along with my strong passion for the history of the game, I was hooked.
Sorry for the frowny face in a happy thread.
