Starting Card
For me it's the 1962 Post Cereal Willie Mays. My favorite player on the back of a cereal box while pushing the shopping cart for my mom in the Food Fair. I saw the box, got excited and she bought the cereal. Still have my original card.

My first Pre-War card was 1933 Goudey from the Frisch catalog. They'd give you a random common and it was Jack Quinn.
My first T206 was Harry Pattee bought my dad at a Wisconsin card shop. Though no specific card got me hooked. I just started collecting them when I was little, and bought Topps packs from a local grocery store. Last edited by drcy; 02-18-2021 at 02:20 PM.

I started collecting as a kid in 1989 so obviously the UD Griffey was the hot card at the time. Packs were 2 or 3 bucks each at the time. Never did pull one, but traded for one at some point later.
My first vintage card was a 58 Mantle/Aaron. I thought it was so cool that it had both players on it, and couldn't figure out why it was cheaper than a similar card with only one of them.
