    Yep, that's the kind of estate I like too. Where they kept everything for a hundred years!

    What a find. Looked like the colors of the cards were so preserved. Must be exciting to the baseball card collecting world.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Blessings on those families! Why can't we be related to the ones that kept all of the mint condition pre-WWII sports cards and art deco platinum jewelry?

    My family put all of their platinum deco jewelry in their bike spokes. They melted down the baseball cards in the 80’s to pay property taxes on the shore houses.
