My Wagner for Your Parakeet? - slightly OT

[jasonc]

Agree with Wonkaticket, some of the baseball players are those would likely been thrown in the trash.. I know the Wagner is an awesome card, and the holy grail, but it would be boring compared to some of the other tobacco cards.

Great Topic Frank!

I totally agree with you about the correlation bet the tobacco packs and happy meals. I think A lot did get tossed in the trash by SINGLE people with no kids, and those with kids gave it to the kid as a "toy"

I also think with the way people smoked back then there must of been a lot of cards floating around, all with no value at all im guessing.

Come on, Clarence, lets get this deal done.

You are telling me that my Wagner is just an old ballplayer and that the card is trimmed. Furthermore you state that birds will be around forever but the folks will soon tire of watching grown men playing stickball.

So in your opinion my Wagner for your parakeet, oops Carolina Parrot I mean, is not a fair swap. I tell you what. I am going to up the ante and throw in both my SS Conte Rosso card and the Colosseum along with my Wagner for your damn bird. Take it or leave it and stop acting like that parakeet is going to end up in the Audubon Hall of Fame or some such.
