It was a long time ago I went to what was most likely the first card show in Connecticut. My Dad and I decided I would go right he would go left I had $20-$25 in my pocket but my Dad was there with more. The second table I see a dealer who I knew pretty well in his display ( old school plastic pages designed by stamp dealers on a stand) I see a Topps Dice game Mays and a common. I ask how much he says $100 for the Mays and $60 for the common. I say I will get my Dad go to where he is he is looking at some nice T201's picking out the last couple we need for set. I notice he has an extra Dougherty/ Lord and we agree on $3. We go back to Dice game Table Mays is gone but he says despite offer for common he waited until I got back. So disappointed Mays is gone and seeing two I figure I will get another chance at a hall of Famer so pass on common.
