Even though I have no illusions of collecting the sets, I couldn’t resist dropping a couple of bucks on this group.
The 1960’s Philadelphia sets have become a recent source of fascination for me, both for their simple but colorful designs and for the non-Topps-ness of the cards. So anyway, while going through a box at this show I ran across a team bag of eight well-loved cards from 1964 Philadelphia Gum Football. I’ve been thinking of somewhat changing my cheapskate tendencies but that’s a topic for an upcoming post. This is because, for over a decade, we in Shlabotsylvania didn’t have a show within a 90 minute drive… So now that we’ve got a show that actually *comes back* on a regular basis, I get a little free with my spending… Relatively speaking, of course, I’m still a cheapskate. So there’s this local card show I bend over backwards to support.
