			The person who cosigned this card to REA reached out to me and after I talked to him, the back story of how he found this card is as good as the card itself.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	We love stories like this; so here is the back story of not only the card but also of the collector whose card is included in the next REA auction. http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com...y-inside-joke/ Regards Rich  |

			Honestly it could not have happened to a better man. I live within a couple of miles of Bill and have worked with his wife for about a decade. I am hoping to get a chance to see the rest of the collection soon as well. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Will let everyone know how that goes. Joshua  |
