Yesterday I drove to Pittsburgh to buy a metal shelving unit off somebody from FB marketplace and little did I realize that I would return home with a box of vintage sports cards!

Love this, whenever someone says to me "Hey, I've got some old baseball cards...", it's always a box full of 1991 Fleer.

Pete LaCock is the son of TV Game-Show Host(60's and 70's), Peter Marshall of "Hollywood Squares," you may not recall? The 1975 Topps card of Ted Simmons w/long hair is my favorite bb card of the 70's! His nick-name was "Simba" after the Japanese cartoon Lion......man, you are so lucky to come across a big box of old sports cards like that! Wow! Hey I appreciate you allowing us to go through the whole box vicariously. Thank you sir....

Lovin this video! I went to a new card shop by me today. Owner had several lots he bought and didn’t go through yet. Most was junk wax. One box of opened 1993 topps I went through, and in the last ten cards pulled the Jeter. A little off center and one slightly dinged corner. But it was like finding gold!

Damn, that's some great stuff. I mean just to find a huge box like that with all the vintage stuff, and casually pull out an EDDIE FREAKIN' MURRAY ROOKIE? Nice. Even in it's condition. Then TWO Winfield rookies??? Jim Rice's 2nd year card in Vintage Beckett was listed at $25, it used to be $4, that's how much cards have risen, and then you pull his rookie...... Mike Schmidt's 2nd year is even better, nice. Bubba Smith the famous actor of Police Academy fame, I have one of his cards. Congrats! What a find........ Thank you for showing!

At the time of the Special offer from Nabisco, I ordered 2 Don Drysdales( he just passed on at the time), and I received both of them! I knew some people who didn't receive any! I remember It was back in 1994 or 95'?... They were booking for 90.00 bucks at the time. Hope my input enlightens U?....

Manny Sanguillen was with the Pirates from 1967/1969-1976 then the A's in 1977 and then finished the last 3 years with the Pirates. 78-80. On the Dock Ellis game which some dispute, he was very wild and walked 8 and the batters were a little afraid because the ball was everywhere. He didn't think he was supposed to be pitching that day.
