I believe it was 1976 at the Hotel Aspen, Parsippany New Jersey. A dealer had exactly 2 pages of 1952 Topps Mantles, 6 or so per page. He told my dad and I we could have any one of our pick for $100 per. I can't remember the condition but I know they were not beaters. Probably Ex or Ex/Mt. We looked at each other like he was crazy and smiled. The most I had ever spent on a card was $35 and that was for a Goudey Ruth! This was just a Mantle. I sure wish I knew how to build a flux capacitor.
