Larry is one of the best dealers I have ever met. Many of his customers eventually become his friends - he is just that kind of guy.
Now I would say that a large percentage of stuff he has sold over the years has come from Pat Sarma. Pat, at one time, owned the biggest hockey card collection in the world. He had all the mainstream, as well as some rare oddball issues, and some of these pieces were in just incredible shape! Pat is in his seventies now, and so he has been selling everything off through Larry. I would say that most of his "good stuff" is probably gone.
So, whenever you see an amazing piece out there, whether it's a Jacques Plante rookie in NM shape or some rare oddball piece, then there is a chance it might have come from Pat's collection.
