The 74-year Journey Of A Complete 1952-53 Parkhurst Hockey Set

IN THE WINTER OF 1952, OUR CONSIGNOR WAS A DEDICATED CUB SCOUT IN SEARCH OF HIS BADGE FOR HAVING A HOBBY. TO EARN IT, HE NEEDED TO DEMONSTRATE HIS ABILITY TO NOT ONLY COLLECT SOMETHING BUT TO COMPLETE A TASK WTIHIN THIS CHOSEN ENDEVOR. HE DECIDED TO COLLECT THE ENTIRE 1952-53 PARKHURST HOCKEY SET. THE CHALLENGE 74 YEARS AGO AS A 10 YEAR OLD WAS ACQUIRING THE FUNDS TO BUY PACKS AT HIS LOCAL DRUG STORE. PACKS WERE 5 CENTS EACH AND NICKELS WERE NOT EXACTLY FALLING OUT OF THE SKY! HE DID CHORES AROUND THE HOUSE AND FOR NEIGHBORS AND SCROUNGED FOR POP BOTTLES BUT THAT ONLY GOT HIM SO FAR! HE REALLY WANTED THAT BADGE! HE NOTICED OTHER BOYS ALSO COLLECTING THE SET AND STARTED TRADING WITH SCHOOL MATES AND FRIENDS. HE FINALLY COMPLETED THE 105 CARD SET AND TO THIS DAY, STILL CHERISHES THE MEMORY! SO MUCH, THAT HE STILL HAS THE CUB SCOUT HOBBY BADGE "AND THE CARDS". HE KEPT THEM FOR 74 YEARS UNTIL HE FINALLY DECIDED TO PASS THEM ON SO SOMEONE ELSE COULD ENJOY THE CARDS AND CREATE THEIR OWN MEMORIES FROM THEM. WE ARE HONORED THAT HE CHOSE TO CONSIGN HIS 1952-53 PARKHURST COMPLETE SET TO AA SPORTS CARDS (Vahoota on eBay). PLEASE WATCH FOR THIS SET ON EBAY THIS WEEK.
