My 9 year old son has to read 20 minutes per night as part of his 4th grade reading grade.

I've got many of those scholastic books about baseball, basketball, and football stars. He used to complain about the reading assignment, now he loves it, he was telling me last night about Mike Schmidt hitting 4 homeruns in a game, which he got from the book.

So simple books like that which are readily available at yard sales for 10 cents or probably on ebay catch their interest.

That is how I got interested in vintage as a kid, reading Bill Stern books, and books such as "Strange but true (baseball, football) stories.

Also, those Laughlin world series cards interested me, I wondered how Deacon Phillippe could throw all those complete games in a world series and one of my first t 206 purchases as a kid was Deacon Phillippe at a flea market in the 70's.
