I just bought a pack of 1979 Topps Moonraker cards. I am going to chew the gum. It is 37 years old. If I don't survive, it was nice knowing you all.
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

LMAO! If it is anything like when a friend popped some old OPC gum from a hockey card pack a number of years ago, it will disintegrate in your mouth. Not pleasant.

Does it still have the same good smell it had back in the day?

First you have to scan it. Then add it to the set as an "Insert".

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |

I was going to say that trying to chew it is going to be more like chewing glass. I got a pack from the late-80's a couple of years ago and threw the gum on the floor. It shattered into glass-like shards. As I picked them up, they were SHARP points! Don't cut your mouth up like that. :-D

~ Patrick Please Please Please read my profile before making a trade proposal. My "wants" for my Cardinals collection is accurate from 1900 - 2008. I still have about 12,000Plus Cardinals cards from 2009-present to sort through and enter. Please do not offer any Cardinals cards from 2008-present unless you contact me first as there is a chance I already have it amongst the multitude to still go through. I still have about 30K Cardinals duplicates that are not yet entered in the database as FS/FT. "For the love of the game" |
