Hello,
If you have a moment please share your experience.
Do you remember where you had your 1st experience/exposure to trading cards?
Was there 1 store in particular or several places where you acquired them from?
I got started in around 1974-75 there was a non-franchise candy/convenience store
that carried lots of candy and some cards just 1 block up Champagneur street in a district known as Park Extension in Montreal.
This was the original fuel to the fire and never stopped since.
Almost daily i would scrounge up a dollar and get 8 to 10 packs of cards and get a few of those 1c swedish berries and 5c gumball packs or bottle caps or Popeye smokes and the occasional candy hearts with messages on them. Thrills soapy gum(who thought of that?) etc...
Thank you for sharing your stories,
Steven
