My personal favorite is the 1964 Topps Archie Skeen (#423 or so IIRC) card with this biographical nugget: Archie has retired to become a school teacher. Thus ended the Archie Skeen investment club

Thanks, didn't know about Archie.
Sadly, it seems he recently left us: http://www.myers-mortuary.com/obitua...ity-UT/1732213
RIP Mr. Skeen.
