I tripped and fell into it but that made the find even more exciting. It's time to break out the old NES. I was actually buying the 1985 Super Mario stuff and didn't notice the Mario "rookie" Menko card until a few minutes ago. Does it count as a triple "rookie" since it has the whole gang on it? Cant wait to display it on my office wall.

The are very similar for sure. You can play a bunch of different types of games with them. Our favorite when I was a kid was to throw them at each other as hard as we could like ninja stars.

Those metal slammers would have made better throwing stars:D Cool Nintendo memorabilia find.

LOL. Good thing you weren't around to give us ideas. Roman candle wars with some metal slappers sounds like the greatest time ever.
