What is the most valuable card you have that you pulled from a wax pack as a child?

some cool stories and pictures here.

sadly for me. I do not recall what I pulled or values. We just bought packs of cards, cracked them open so what we had and then

1. Traded cards
2. Flipped Cards
3. Put Cards in spokes.
4. fling the cards (for distance competition and other odd reasons)

I remember pulling an OPC Eddie Murray RC from a pack. What's odd is that the pack was purchased at a store in Hyannis, MA while on a family vacation. What was a wax box of OPC doing there? OPC were manufactured in my hometown, so it was rather funny that I had to travel to Cape Cod for this pack as opposed to just walking down to the corner store. In a very Zanadakian move, I still have all the cards from the pack, as well as the wrapper. Also in the pack were Nolan Ryan and Pete Rose.

Probably either an '89 Topps Jerome Walton (with the rookie trophy!!) or 1990 Upper Deck Kevin Maas.

A 1976 Walter Payton RC. Submitted to PSA a few years ago and it came back an 8!

A Willie Mays from a '51 Bowman pack bought at the local general store.

1984 Topps Don Mattingly RC, pulled from a pack I purchased at Hall's Nostalgia in Arlington, MA. I was nine years old, but still remember how excited I was... even as a die hard Red Sox fan.

When I started collecting again, I only had a small stack of cards left from my youth. Probably the best card in the stack was a 1973 Clemente. I'm sure all the others went into the spokes of my bicycle.
