Cards from Vending and grading

Posted By: Dave Hornish

I remember buying a box of 75 vending from Renata Galasso in 1975, so some dealers sold them to the public. I also remember buying cards from 5 cent vending machines. In 1972, after Gil Hodges died his card was the most sought after one in the set. I used to get most of my cards at a local toy and hobby store called Coronet (Westbury, NY-a great store when I was a kid, long gone now) and could not find one in a pack (and I used to buy rack packs) for anything and finally stuck a nickel in a vending machine and lo and behold ol' Gil was there.
