I don't know the going rate for the Kling raw, but it's nice to see that there are some oldies at the national that are affordable. It gives me hope!

I asked every dealer I saw with vintage if they had any Johnny Klings. I would say at least 49 out of every 50 tables said they had none, because the only two folks who had Klings, I bought from! :].

First is the 2.5--got a very generous deal on this from the dealer. I am very happy with the corners on this card and overall appeal--doesn't get much better for a 2.5!



This one was a duplicate, but I couldn't pass it up for the price:



This makes 7 (I think) for the Kling back run, with a few more possibly on the way over the course of the next week.
