I started collecting in about 1979 after getting fun packs at Halloween of non sport. After seeing those and being a very young kid who hadn’t really focused on sports yet, the obvious interest remained non sport movie cards.
In 1982, I bought a literal full wood bushel basket of random sports cards for maybe 50 or 75 cents at a garage sale. Sorting through them and reading stats and careers I fell in love. I still have a small group from that basket that are in god awful condition. For some odd reason the one card that made me jump headfirst into what is now a 46 year obsession was the 1982 Vida Blue in action card. For some reason that card became one I would carry to school and pretty much treat like a security blanket.
I still have it to this day and it’s going nowhere.
