Default I didn't buy my first vintage card

I got a phone call from an uncle who had helped some friends clean out an old house. He found a small "foot locker" type box and opened it. He said that the box was full of old "stuff". In the bottom of the box there was an old baseball card. This was probably around 1983-early '84 (I was 12-13 yrs old). The card turned out to be a 1933 Goudey #206 Gus Suhr. Has back damage and some front damage from I guess bugs(????). I still have this card even though I have had 2 or 3 of the same card in better condition BUT I always keep this one......and probably always will.
