I've collected various things pretty much my whole life.
My grandmother got me started with stamps and coins, and I added rocks, shells, insects, old bottles and insulators.... bought all of one pack in 69, another in 71. 73 moved to a new town and all the kids were doing cards. And what a great time to start too. Got to see the end of Willie Mays career, The Dolphins going unbeaten, Aaron breaking the record, the Red Sox almost winning the series, It seemed like every new season in every sport brought something amazing. The Hank Aaron specials in the 74 set made me aware of cards older than I knew. Got my first "vintage" card from a friend, a 68 Matthews. New town again in late 77, and a town that had a baseball card store with all sorts of cards. It became a hangout for me. I've added other collectibles, and still keep up a bit with my other hobbies, sometimes more, sometimes less.
