1979 Topps Nordhagen- was it withdrawn?
1979T Nordhagen - Anyone have an uncut sheet? Was it a singleprint?
1978 T Nordhagen Also rare?

Even when I started hoarding his 1978 Topps and all his other cards it was hard to convince anyone it was not an error in some way!
I eventually filled a vending case and a half and have over 20,000 of his cards somewhere in my storage! It was fun, but the best part is that on opening day one year I gave Wayne Nordhagen a huge box of his cards for his fans fans and friends!
I still buy all of his cards when I see them. This hobby is fun and this story is one of the examples of the fun times I've had over the decades!
