What was your first ever cards?

Hello
Wondering when everys first card was. What was it, what year and how old were you

I had got Daily Telegrah cards since 2001.
My first Select cards were when I was 11 and its was the 2006 Invincible Cowboys common set. I was stoked and they went everywhere with me.
I then bought the whole 2006 Invincible set and then started collected Cowboys inserts.

I now LOVE NRL cards!!! (Especially Cowboys cards )

not NRL but my first ever pack that I bought was way back in '93 and it was Futera NBL cards and I actually scored a Brian Gorgian Coach of the Year insert card, sadly that was the only time I got an insert from that set- I still have the card too!!

My first ones were the 1986 Scanlens NRL Cards - I can still remember how good the smell was. That bubble gum was just the best stuff ever invented! I was in 2nd Grade at primary school, but it wasn't until a year later that I had enough cash to buy heaps of packs! Gotta love the purple 1987 Scanlens set!

My first Rugby League cards were the 1989 set. I have been collecting ever since then.

My first pack was Scanlen Rugby League back in the 70's and the card that stood out for me was Rod Reddy's
I had no idea about collecting back then the cards were dog eared and mark to think if I looked after them and to have them now

My first pack of footy cards would have been back in 74/75 when I was 4/5 yrs old.I know I had the 79 series about 2 times over wish I had them now but long gone lost in a move sometime in the 80's.
