I remember that he dragged Bill Hughes over to my table to examine the Cy Young. After getting the blessing from Bill, the doctor paid me in AMEX traveler checks ($50 checks). I think my asking price was around $1800 ?
Roy, this was definitely the same guy. “Doc Newman” (that’s what so many called him) did a lot of business with Bill Hughes in that era and often asked his advice buying cards.
