The word attic will have to show up somewhere. I will bet on it. Couldn't have possibly had them in a safe deposit box or bank vault. Has to be an attic, preferably a farm house, preferably in the midwest somewhere. Probably buried under other stuff for last 50 years. Has to be a story, real or created.

Flea market? Followed by - lawsuit filed by flea market seller...

How about a load of W600s or E107s? Pavlov would have had a field day with this.

Near a swamp, creek or river with a catchy colorful name.

I think a lot of finds lately have been "behind a wall during home renovation!" Not sure why anyone would have walled up their ball cards back in the day though, but to each their own, LOL!

Default REA find

How the hell did those cards survive in such good shape, in hot, humid Florida,
in a "barn," no less. Amazing.

Default Cards

Is this a find or just one of many ungraded collections? Seems like everything not in a slab is a find these days.

It's definitely a find of over 10,000 ungraded cards.
