Hello all,
Thought I would share these images, for those who might be interested. These are the only cards from my dad that still exist. He was the unfortunate victim of the classic "my mom threw out all my cards." Actually, his went in an ill-advised 1983 garage sale, but oh well. This is one of the albums that you could obtain for the Post/Jello etc. cards from the early 1960s. All of the cards are securely glued onto the album pages. The album has not weathered the ravages of time well, as it is deteriorating. The pages themselves are incredibly fragile. The cover is long gone, and the first page (with the Yankees) is falling apart. You will see in the photos that I have posed the Mantle card where it should go, but it has completely separated from the album page itself. I thought some folks might be interested to see how a 9/10/11 year old kid cut out the cards, glued them into his album, edited a few of the cards, and subbed in some Topps cards here and there as he saw fit. If anyone wants to weigh in on whether or not there is a rarity that I don't know about, feel free!
