The last card of your first hand collated set
I remember it so clearly, I was 11 and the first set I attempted to complete was the 1987 Topps set. I had opened three boxes and traded with friends at school yet one card eluded me...the Ron Guidry #375. The father of a boy up the street from me collected cards and I shared with him that it was the one I was missing and he gifted it to me. It might as well have been a Mickey Mantle because that last card brought me such joy. And still, 28 years later, that moment left a lasting impression, the completion of my first hand collated set. I was officially hooked on cards, for life.
Anyone else remember their last card of their first set as a kid?
