      1. Hahaha…. You know what i had that pele card and whenever i used to get out everyone wanted me to bat the second time in the hope i week give the card to someone who preferred me 😂

      2. Wow Shubhadeep…. you brought back memories. I was in standard one….. remember some unique cards that were a rarity…. Andy Herzog, Brian Robson, Roger Milla were difficult to get. My favourite was that of Marco Van Basten and Slyvatore Sillachi…. wow you brought back some memories.

  2. Ah… I didn’t understood football at that time… but I remember having a pack of those gems that we used to flaunt in school …. I remember my dad used to stay awake to watch matches and I remember the frenzied names of Maradona, Careca, Scilacci, Hagi, Valdarama, Klinsmann etc
