Nice as well, and mine was from 1981 and also around $2.00 (I got 5 1910 era HOF cards for $11 at the first show I ever went to, and actually the first table just inside the door...I spent all the money I had within the first couple of minutes! I was destined to collect vintage).

I guess $2.00 was the going rate for T206 Mattys back then.

Card #15 in Series 1, it was in the first packs that came out in 1967. Reminds me of those chilly Minnesota April days when we couldn't wait for the weather to get just a little warmer so we could play baseball.

That is really amazing the price difference back then compared to today!

Not exactly pre-war, but...

I got married in Venezuelan ±18 years ago, and Mike Schmidt was always my favorite ballplayer. So this is a cool piece from my Phillies collection
