    Great memories Mike. Reggie’s 79 Topps is one of my favorites of his.. Next to his 78.

    Hi Mike! Great story about delivering beer in Germany! That must have been a great experience spending time over there as a kid. I remember the TV channels shutting off around midnight here too back in the late 70s. Unfortunate way to learn about Munson passing away! What a sad day that was, I remember it well.
    The newspaper articles
    Are a lot of fun to read and look back on! The brawl you showed was against the Red Sox!
    Awesome bunch of 79 Topps cards! Thanks for showing Yaz! 😁

      @@davidm686 Thanks, I really appreciate it. That was a fun summer. My aunt had a small room downstairs where the old timers would sit all day n drink beer. I had a choice of soda or beer any time I wanted! There was a bakery directly across the street from my aunt & would buy such delicious German pastries!! Anyway, take care buddy.

    Great stories Mike. Interesting to hear how things were in a time period in another country. 70’s cards are great and underrated. Someday I would like to do a Munson run.
