Thank you. I don't have a local card shop anymore.
In some cases that's good, as my frequency of impulse purchases is way down without that "instant gratification" factor...but I do miss the experience of walking in, seeing the eye candy all in one place, smelling the nostalgia literally through thousands of old cards that were stockpiled in the back - and being able to work out a deal for a piece of history with the owner right then and there.
Again I do think that on the whole, the '55 Bowmans are under appreciated and great bargains (the Mays being a prime example) to add HOFers at a decent price. A '57 Topps or even a '59 Topps Mays in similar condition would have cost me probably $50 more, I'm willing to bet.
