I can't believe I found this lot of cards at a thrift store today!
I got all nerdy in the store, and this older lady behind the counter probably thought I was insane as I went into a ten minute speech about Galactica when I saw the cards and asked her to take them out of the display case...
Most are well-used, a few creases here and there, just well-loved is all. Thought I'd share for all to enjoy because we all get very excited about anything Classic BSG.
Obviously, there are quite a few missing, and I did get a few duplicates, as well as a surprise Superman card; I hope to fill in the blanks for a complete set one day.

Lately it occurs to me what a long, strange trip it's been.

What an awesome find! You can fill that set out nicely on ebay. There are plenty of card trading sites around as well that might help. I loved the Rittenhouse cards from a few years back until they started releasing the costume cards. Sure they make good color references, but as soon as I saw they cut up Starbuck's "Long Patrol" tunic just to throw on some lousy cards I kicked them straight to the curb.

The cards are nice the first card with the red border is from the 1978 wonder bread 36 card set the other cards are from the topps 132 card set that also came with a 20 card sticker set.

I just bought 3 sets of the wonder bread card set for $5.00 each plus shipping.
