This weekend's Cooperstown Show report

[tedzan]

Another great time in Cooperstown this past Thurs thru Sunday. First time in a long time that there was no rain.....but, it was very hot.

The BB card show at the VFW building was very busy both days (Fri & Sat). Most of us 15 dealers (vintage BB cards & memorabilia) had
an excellent show. And, Jimmy Spence was constantly busy.

Here is a sampling of some of the cards that I sold......

N162 Billiards players
T201 Cobb / Crawford
T206 Johnson (portrait)....Sovereign 150 back
T206 Shaughnessy
T206 Evers (portrait)
Several T206's with tougher backs
44 cards from my T206 "junk box"
Diamond Stars, Goudey's and Play Balls
1949, 1950, 1951 Bowman's
1952 Bowman Mantle (PSA 4)
and,
1961, 1963, 1966, and 1967 Topps High #s


I met Tom and Ellen Zappala, and Lou Blasi on Saturday on Main Street. We spent quite a bit of time chatting about T206's. They had a
constant crowd at their table interested in their "T206 Collection" book. Tom, Ellen and Lou are really great folks to talk with.

Every year at this show some interesting things happen. In my next post here, I will tell you of an astonishing coincidence that occurred.
