What is the first pack or box of baseball cards that you can remember opening? For some this might be harder than others to answer so that's why I ask what one you have the first memory of opening.

Not 100% sure. I know it was either 81 Topps or 81 Donruss.

1986 Topps. I was 7 years old, and my family had gone for ice cream after dinner. My parents bought me a Cello pack, and the only card I can actually remember is Mike Smithson.

My first pack wasn't baseball,and yes I'm dating myself.It was a 1966 pack of Batman cards bought at the Staten Island ferry terminal when I was 5,my Father treated me to a few packs after we dropped Mom off for work,good times.
