Default The answer to who originated sports collectibles - sorta OT

Posted By: Chris Counts

I just word today from another longtime Southern California collector that Goodwin is "alive and well and living somewhere in the valley." To anybody living in the Los Angeles area, "the valley" means the San Fernando Valley. I recall his wife passing away back in the late 70s. I was surprised to hear he's still alive ... he must be in his 90s. My dad is 84 now, and when he used to drive my brother and I to the Adco Sports Exchange in the early 70s, he was considerably younger than Goodwin. I also recall he donated a ton of his stuff to the Notre Dame archives ...
