Default Fond memories!

First Pack of Cards: 1968 Topps BB
First set completed by hand: 1974 Topps BB. Thanks to the Card Collector's Company for the last 25 +/- cards I needed that year. I remember being amazed at how ultra-sharp those singles were!
First T206: A widow answered my newspaper "Wanted To Buy" ad back in 1978.
I Bought a lot of 20 +/- from her, all with Tolstoi backs, except for one Uzit back. I remember a Cobb Bat off shoulder in the lot (it had a Tolstoi back).
First Card To Pay >$100 For: 1950 Bowman Jackie Robinson, to finish my set. $250 back in the early 1990's.
First Card To Pay >$1000 For: 1966 Topps Mantle
Most Memorable Trade: In the early 1990's, I traded my beat-up 1954 Aaron rookie, ten 1986 Donruss BB wax boxes (when the Canseco rookie was a big deal) and a few other star cards for a NM 1954 Aaron rookie. At the time, it was a win-win deal for the card shop and myself. I still have the card and cherish it.
