You do make some good points though as far as Copeland was concerned, from all I know and have heard about him, I'd be very surprised if his decision to sell had anything to do with the goings-on at shows or the obsession with modern "crap". To my knowledge, he did not attend shows and I would think that the events you describe would to real vintage collectors (as opposed to accumulators) be more amusing than distressing. Much the way I feel today about the staggering premium people are willing to pay for condition rarities.
