Going through my grandparents house when they moved I found a 1954 Topps Granny Hamner. Probably would grade a 5-6. My grandma told me the horror story of her throwing away my dads and uncles cards. “Looks like I missed one” she said. Come on grandma!

Our house was built in 1925 and not well maintained. There were cabinets in the laundry that looked like they'd been painted shut decades ago. I painstakingly pried them open and found...a newspaper from 1968.

In the garage as I was clearing it out I found a shoebox. I opened it and saw several hundred cards. Garbage Pail Kids. Ugh.

You still have those? I'm a buyer. Loved those things as a kid.

Those Garbage Pail Kids were after me. Never found any Cobb cards either
We had red line Hot Wheels. We collected those 7-11 Slurpee Cups too. We had huge, tall stacks of them. *(not mine)

Hypothetically speaking, if I hire this guy to gut my house so I can renovate and he finds this card in my house, doesn't the card belong to me and not him?

That's assuming he shows it to you and doesn't just sneak it away himself.
But in all seriousness, it would be yours. If you own the property, you own its contents
