The bubble gum completely disintegrates after a couple of chews.

Dave, do you collect cards for fun or is it an investment, you seem to know your stuff.....I don't think I have that year Ozzie card, I started collecting in 1980 as a kid when cards were beginning to be mass produced by a few companies. Fleer, Donruss and Topps mostly! Used to get 20 cards or so a pack for .25 cents and a piece of gum......

I was kinda wondering that too. I'm not sure if he was talking about his experience back in the day, or what. Because that gum pretty much disintegrated quickly back then too.

Purely fun. But if I can get a card that rates well, I would definitely sell it. Nothing is sacred as we say in the "hobby."

Ha, ha. If anyone wants 1979 gum from wax packs, I will definitely mail it to them.
