Not to ruin the party but Dennis did a bad thing as he was going out of business with his publication. Knowing things were pretty much over he went to advertisers and sold cut-rate advertising. Je offered me a “lifetime” ad for something like $1000. I didn’t go for it thankfully but I heard from people who did.

But his Allan Hager expose was the funniest thing I ever read in a hobby publication. Besides Hager deserved it. The other side of the coin was his pursuit of early autograph authenticator Richard Galasso. It was a bit too much like the villager’s pursuing Frankenstein with torches and wood pitchforks. And Galasso being deserving of it was not so black and white.
