Those were the good ole boomer kid's days when the simplest things made us so happy!
In the late '60s, we just used baseball cards. Just make sure it's a "common" card, that you have 5 or 6 of anyways, not something rare & possibly valuable. 😲😁

I couldn't think of a Monty Python tie-in, but do you folks remember the guy in a yellow raincoat & hat, riding a tricycle, on Laugh-In? 😁
