Default 1962 Bill Skowron Green Tint

Was the last one I found --- and I ordered a complete series from Card Collectors Co and the who series was green tints.

I spent three years in the 1970's trying to find that darned Skowron card,

1979 Topps Al Fitzmorris took several months for me to get in 1979

1963 Fleer Checklist I remember

1967 Topps Tom Seaver took me forever in the 70's

1969 it was Ron Brand and another 6th series common I needed

One of my favorite 1980's -- conversations as a dealer ---

I learned what cards were tough "

C: How much is the 1967 Topps Alomar ---

M: $5

C: Beckett says the card lists at 50 cents

M: Here is the address to Beckett Publications, send them your money

M: Then the next line -- how long have you been looking for this card:

C: 2 Years

M: Think about it, there is a reason I'm at the price I am at

Regards
Rich
