Henry Fonda - Actor
Joe Wood Playing Cards - Boston Red Sox
Frank Chance - Chicago Cubs
Darrell Waltrip - Daytona 500 Winner

The one card I really wanted was the Smoky Joe Wood Playing Card, and boom! First pack. Awesome. This actually made it to my Top 10 Most Wanted list. There are quite a few non-baseball cards in this set.
PACK 2:
Apollo 11 - NASA
Bo Derek Playing Cards - Actress
Big White Piece of Cardboard
Flight 19 Mini Carolina Brights - Mystery
Bobby Jones - Golf Champion
Lyman Bostock - Minnesota Twins

One baseball card. Apparently I also have the Twins. I will likely divide up the non-baseball cards among everyone.
PACK 3:
Fielding Yost - Football Coach
Sam McDowell - Cleveland Indians
Karen & Mickey Taylor, Seattle Slew Mini Caramels
Lyndon Johnson - President
Harry Houdini - Illusionist
John Belushi - Comedian
Baseball Dad gets his first card, a Sam McDowell. I might give the horse-racing cards to my wife who loves that sort of thing.

Jake Daubert Museum Age Bat Card - Brooklyn Dodgers
Joe Morgan - Cincinnati Reds
Walter Hagen - U.S. Open Winner
Tommy John - Chicago White Sox
Wow, that Jake Daubert is a really nice card. Baseball Dad with a huge pickup here. That is going to be a hard card to top. Daubert was active in the 1910's. A real old bat piece. Baseball Dad also picked up the Morgan and JediJeff got his first card, a Tommy John. The Yankees also have a card here.
PACK 7:
Woodrow Wilson - President
Bob Denver - Actor
Jane Russell Museum Age Dress Relic (?) - Actress
Henry Ford - Industrialist

Secretariat Playing Card - Triple Crown Winner
Joe Wood Mini Carolina Brights - Boston Red Sox
Al Simmons - Philadelphia Athletics
Bill Freehan - Detroit Tigers

A Tiger for I Don't Know, a Red Sox mini for me of Joe Wood, a player without a lot of cards, and an Athletic for Dean. His first card of the break.
PACK 13:
Ted Simmons - St. Louis Cardinals
The Three Stooges - A Pain in the Pullman
Walter Cronkite - News Anchor
George Brett - Kansas City Royals

Richie Ashburn Mini Carolina Brights - Philadelphia Phillies
Ron Swoboda - New York Mets

Brooks Robinson - Baltimore Orioles
The Three Stooges - Comedy Act
Big White Piece of Cardboard
Dale Murphy Mini Caramels - Atlanta Braves

PACK 18:
Richie Ashburn - Philadelphia Phillies
Pete Rose Top Bread- Cincinnati Reds
Gerald Ford - President
Lou Brock - St. Louis Cardinals

Arnld Rothstein - Gambler
Darrell Waltrip Delong Gum - NASCAR Legend

Max Baer Jr. - Actor
Earl Campbell Delong Gum - NFL
Helen Wills - Tennis
Stan Musial - St. Louis Cardinals

PACK 24:

Giants go to Baseball Dad. And another Yankee of course. The Kiick will be randomly sent to someone.
