You were far more conscientious about taking care of your cards as a kid than 99.9% of us. Those are gorgeous! I rubber-banded cards from 1971 through probably 1981 when I finally discovered card boxes, sleeves and pages.

Ah yes, the rubber-band days. I still have some cards that were in that kind of storage.

Like #17! Love that you chose to showcase the kid, during that era it was only 3 must see players for me. Barry Bonds, Bo Jackson and Ken Griffey Jr. I have a PC for each of them and yours is beautiful my friend. Everyone should have a Junior collection, especially those who grew up in the era. I was 19 years old and I remember the Upper deck packs being more expensive than the rest, I could only afford two packs at the time when I pulled my Griffey Jr. rookie card. I was so stoked and couldn't stop smiling that day, thanks for making us all smile with you. Awesome cards! Thanks for sharing 👍👍 until next time, have an awesome day and GOD Bless Orlando ✌out
