Yes. So many, in fact, that I wrote a longer post about it, got distracted, forgot about it, had other things to do, and just now remembered to finish:

600+ Rare Century-Old Baseball Cards Found in Old Tobacco Tin
The collection includes a unique variety of vintage Babe Ruth cards and hundreds of rare baseball Hall of Famers.
A California man said he stumbled upon every baseball fans’ dream when he found an old tobacco tin at his father’s home.
According to a press release by Auction Monthly, a California-based company that evaluates and consigns sports memorabilia, a treasure trove of more than 600 cards “were discovered in a closet by a Northern California resident cleaning out his father's home” and are “some of the rarest vintage baseball cards from the 1920's.”
The post-World War I era cards will be available in an upcoming sale on the company’s website.

The early 1900's Pedro Cut Plug Tobacco tin was filled with "many different types of pre-war baseball cards from the 1920's era including strip baseball cards from 1919 to 1923 and rare 1924-26 Zeenuts cards that were distributed on the West Coast."
Some of the discovered cards of baseball legends include:
1919-21 W514 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson Nearly every player from the iconic 1919 'Black Sox' team 1921 E220 National Caramel Babe Ruth 1922 American Caramel E121 Babe Ruth 1919-21 Babe Ruth W514 1920 W519 Babe Ruth Ty Cobb 1922 American Caramel E121 1921 W516 Ty Cobb 1920 W519 George Sisler
According to the statement, the 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson card is "a very rare find." Jackson, a career .356 hitter, was part of the Black Sox scandal in 1919. He was one of eight Chicago White Sox players banned for life for allegedly throwing the 1919 World Series.

Tobacco companies include small stick cardboard in the package to prevent the cigarette from getting crush. The company began adding themes to the cards to encourage smokes to buy their brand again an again.
Hollywood and British film stars were a popular theme for the cigarette cards in the 1930s. Joan Bennett appeared in at least eight sets of cigarettes cards. I’ve also included a card of Joan’s sister Constance.

I get packing underwear for myself so I feel better at work mostly. I don't go to a job where i wear sweatpants anymore but it just makes me more comfortable since i see these people nearly every day. But uhh they're a little expensive, relatively, or at least for me. But I'm finally both paying off debt and saving a little money every check, so I bought a 3-pack, since some of the underwear i have are getting holes around the waistband and the.. leg bands? The end bits. Idk i haven't bought myself new underwear in years because it's something I've thought of as kind of frivolous, what i have still lives so I should use it and not waste money on buying something new. But doing laundry today i was like hmm ok yeah i need to replace some of these (to be fair most of the ones in bad shape are not the packing underwear, i will rep this brand forever, $20 a pair is rough but if you can spare it they're great)
