The first pack of cards that I ever opened was a pack of 1987 Topps Baseball. I never saw cards before and it was an interesting experience, introduced to me by friends who just had cards. Loved the future stars and all rookie cups on the cards. Fun and innocent times!! | ||
The first pack of cards that I ever opened was a pack of 1987 Topps Baseball. My older brother had bought a box and gave me a pack to open. I pulled the Bo Jackson Future Stars card from my first pack in which my brother promptly took from me because it was "his box" of cards. Great memories for sure!! | ||
These were the first card packs I ever opened. I was 5 years old at the time but I still remember it like it was yesterday. My dad would buy me a couple packs every time we went to the store. | ||
