Fun time....Show-n-Tell us of experiences pulling cards from wax-packs in your youth

I will start this show with two simultaneous experiences in the Spring/Summer of 1949 when I purchased a 1-cent LEAF pack and a 5-cent BOWMAN pack.

The BOWMAN pack had 5 cards in it. I put Reynolds and Vander Meer together in my BB card album since they both pitched 2 no-hitters within one season.
At age 10, I didn't know much about Wagner, but I guess I had enough respect for him since I did not insert his card in my bike's spokes
