You'd think wrappers from the 1930's would be super scarce and super pricey. You got the pricey part right, but they're more common than you'd think; Mastro offered this lot of 11 together in July 1998.

REA, then a division of MastroNetInc., offered this massive find of 768 1952-55 Red Man Tobacco cards (760 with tabs) in their July 2000 Baseball Cards and Memorabilia auction.

If you read modern hobby guides about the 1976 Laughlin Diamond Jubilee set, most will say that the cards were available from the artist for $3.50. Well, here's an ad from the March 1977 issue of The Trader Speaks proving it!

I always feel bad for vintage hockey unopened collectors; finding these items is tougher than tracking down a unicorn. Here's one of them, a 1961/62 Topps Five-Cent Display Box. More about this one here:

When you find random card collages in your archives…why did I make this? #sports #sportscards

GM #Nostr The blog’s hobby tidbit of the day is about 1964 Philadelphia Football cello boxes:

1964 Philadelphia Football Cello Box – Post War Cards

Sotheby’s auctioned this one off in 1993. The image looks pretty great with the packs all laid out in B&W. However, given Baseball Card Exchange’s wrapping/authentication, it's unlikely #TheHobby will see a box displayed like this again! #Football #FootballCards #Collect #NFL

I need to figure out an intelligent #Nostr integration with what I've historically done with blogging on postwarcards.com. There seem to be options like Highlighter and Habla News. What are the current trends in Nostr "blogging"? #AskNostr #Blogging @⚡️ᗪㄖ匚⚡️ @Derek Ross
