I was stunned to hear of Jim's passing earlier today.
Eight years ago, Jim contacted me regarding a bunch of T206 Southern Leaguer cards he needed for his set; and, we did a nice deal. This was our 1st hobby transaction. I'll recall an interesting experience at the last Baltimore National (2012) where I was checking out a really sharp-looking 1949 LEAF Joe DiMaggio card whose background color was Yellow (instead of Green). It was a potential purchase which I jotted down in my notebook. Approx. an hour later, Jim tracks me down to ask me about a card at the Show that he was quite interested in. You guessed it....it was the same 1949 LEAF Joe D. card. Jim asked me several questions regarding this card. I answered them. He graciously thanked me and departed. Later that evening at the Hilton Hotel he showed me this LEAF card. I can still recall his enthusiasm regarding this acquisition. GOD Bless Jim's soul....and, GOD Bless and Comfort Jim's family.
