Default one of my best trades

it was 1987 when my fellow 3rd grade classmate brought a stack of his fathers 1956 Topps to school for trade... I had just ripped open a bunch of 1987 topps packs the night before had had a stack of fresh woodgrain beauties available...

the trade went a little something like this:
Dave's 1987 Topps Canseco, Wally Joyner, Roger Clemens (record breaker and regular), Wade Boggs, and I believe Will Clark

For the following:
-Hank Aaronn, Jackie Robinson, and a Redsox team card.

At the time I think the aaron booked at $30 & the Robby $25... When I showed my mother the value of my new Gems, she got so ticked off that she called my classmates father and offered the cards back... Noah's father refused by saying that his son had to learn a lesson, and that he had given him only his doubles anyway!!!!!
