How the memory’s came flooding back

I stumbled across this web site while looking for something else.
http://www.oldbubblegumcards.com/1960s/ ... index.html
I remember collecting these when I was a nine or ten years old.
I’d forgotten how graphic they were. I’m not sure you could get away with selling something like this now.
Does anyone else remember them?

Hey
Tobe,
Do I remember these ? Absolutely ! I remember going to the store on the corner and buying them.
About 6 years ago, I decided that I wanted the complete set of these Topps Civil War cards.
I shopped online on EBAY and completed the entire set bidding on them.
Each card is in a plastic holder.
By far, this set is my prized possession !

Yeah, I've got two complete sets and many more, plus the store display box. All these I collected in the 60's and kept in primo shape...my pride and joy.
And of course, the
LITTLE Confederate bills.

Forever hopeful that the south will rise again.

That is a great collection RebBugler !
I remember the boxes and the confederate bills !
As a kid I used to collect everything that had bubble gum in the pack.... :silly:
I wish I still had those from back then, they would be worth money....
:cheer:
