An eBay seller called cards-fan was selling some really cool old singles with low opening bids and I actually won a couple that nobody bid on. After the auctions were over he told me that he had an extra of one of the other cards I had bid on, and he threw that in two. Three for the price of two - for 1947 Tip Top Bread cards! Really generous for a really cool, and really old, oddball set. Anything before not only Topps but Bowman too is really cool to me.
Two St. Louis Cardinals and a St. Louis Brown! The backs are really fun too, with the advertisement for Tip Top Bread. It even explains how trading works.

Cool pickups! I have exactly one card from before 1952, and I really would like to expand there.
