I become easily excited at times. This is a case where I was excited to see something, grabbed it and then later on wished that I hadn’t.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with these items. I picked them up for a fair price. They are oversized (4 11/16 x 6 1/4″) and not easily stored. I don’t care for the current NFL, but I like vintage cards and appreciate the history of professional football. That is why the subjects on these cards excited me.
These men were THE early stars of the game. I do have cards for both of them for my 1955 Topps All-American set and I wish I had just been content with that and had passed on these. Ah well, it happens. I prefer a little buyer remorse on something that I bought that on something that I passed on and shouldn’t have.
