The Origin of Baseball Card Shows
Posted By: CN
As a young teenager I was lucky to have a relative who worked for a charity that sponsored Monthly card shows at the Golden Gate Motel in Brooklyn. I was fascinated by the shows. I would help out the dealers in setting up and packing up and since I was always there they would have me watch their tables. I never got paid in money just cards and in about 4 years I built up a nice collection and a lot of knowledge about cards. Those weekends are priceless for me. CN, This was in 1976 to about 1979 when Topps was a Monopoly but I always drifted for the Older cards.
