My dad who grew up in the late 30's-early 40's remembers having baseball cards...but no specifics. He just lost track of them and assumes they were thrown away. His dad also had a babe ruth autographed home run ball that he gave away.

My childhood collection was mainly obtained from family friends whose kids had grown and moved out. They must have been bummed to return home someday to have found them gone! All those late 50's -present cards I literally gave away in exchange for a beat up old 77' camaro!
