Remember that ad in Baseball Digest for the cardboard locker to hold your baseball cards? I bought one. When at school, my Dad put the cardboard locker together. I was thrilled I finally had it. Then he opened my dresser draw and there was a 1973 Topps Rack Pack he bought for me. He whispered to me: "Don't tell your mother." No idea who was in that pack. I do remember that nice things my Dad did that day. And my Mother never threw out my cards. They both celebrate their 79th birthday this week.
