What - The new occupants weren't Phil Roof fans? Some people have no taste.

Phil obviously should have been on the ceiling

I decopaged (sp??) a bunch of 74's to a clipboard by taping them to the clipboard and them coating them with a thick layer of Elmer's glue.

I wish I could find that clipboard.

We also used to change the team name when a player got traded to his new team, or change positions we'd cross it out and put the new position in.

Back in 1969... I took all my cards and holepunched them at the top, then I threaded a string thru there...stapled the string on the head board and the wall...and there it was.. the whole set on a home made rol-a-dex !..what a life..laying on the bed..all your cards hanging above ! LOL

In 1957 as a 9 year old I cut all the top right corners off of the complete 1st and 2nd series of Topps baseball to keep my older brother from stealing them.Must have worked because I still have all of them.

I didn't cut and paste...but I do remember in 1975 in N. Calif, I bought a box of Topps packs and the cards were small (ofcourse they were minis) and I thought they were all like that..then went to another store and bought more packs and they were larger!

...So wth...I cut those up to make it look like the mini because I thought the larger cards were errors.
