Ah, Leon's takeover. I still miss Jay (corrected per request).

As Barry said, seemed to be more inclusive back then. T206 got attention, but nowhere near as much as today. Same as today, there would be a couple of crackpots show up every year, stay for months, and then be gone.

Slabbed versus not was discussed a lot (slabbing was in it's infancy). In retrospect, the non-slab crowd ended up being dead on with their gloomy prognostications of what slabbing would become and the problems that would ensue.

Money/value seemed to be far less of a focus, but maybe that's just my current wistfulness kicking in.
