This was my first vintage Lefty Grove card. I bought it about 32 years ago in 1987 from a dealer who advertised in the Sports Collectors Digest.

Collected junk wax as a kid, this was my first 'real' purchase, 9 years ago now. Being from Atlanta & growing up Braves fan, its my favorite card.

I'm not sure how long I have "owned" this. My Grandpa used Polar Bear tobacco and this was his. We found it along with a Cy Young Portrait and a Joe Kelley (both Polar Bears) in his dresser drawer after he and Grandma passed.
We were NEVER allowed to go into his bedroom and we NEVER knew he had them. We figured that since he only had daughters and too many grandkiddies, he just kept them rather than try to decide who he should give them to. They were "given" to me with the proviso that they never be sold - they NEVER will be...

I've posted this before on a similar thread some years ago. Circa 1979...A 1933 Goudey Goslin port from a baseball magazine that had an ad page with a bunch of Goudey cards listed with prices. I was a whale for cards even back then, I think I paid $15 or so for it with lawnmower money. Next time I'll tell the time I had my aunt pay $20 for a vg/e 1959 Topps Early Wynn around 1981....Greg Morris cards just sold a similar one on ebay for $1.40

Bought in 2014, which is a long time for me since I seem to change my collecting focus every couple of years, outside a small handful core favorite cards.
This is one of only two vintage cards in my collection (and by far the oldest of the two) that I can trace directly to its original owner who pulled it from a pack. Actually it just had that pack-pull owner then me. Pretty rare in these days of cards changing hands so much and adds a cool dimension to it IMO.
