2. I wasn't old enough to fight in the war so we collected these cards.

4. One of my husband's friends was just talking to us about those.
I had to check your profile to be sure you're not him. Small world, huh?

5. Yes. We sold some on eBay a while back.
They were passed down to my son from one of his uncles.

I think they did pretty well.

10. Other kids had them.
I saw them when they were passed around in school. The ones I remembered were pretty gory.
