believe it was Larry (likely with Jeff assisting) that identified the Doyle National card as a true rarity. As the story goes, Larry ran across one of the National cards, recognized it for what it was, and then put a continuous ad in SCD offering to buy any and all T206 Doyle pitching cards. After he bought hundreds, along came another National and the rarity was established. RIP Jeff

Two things i dreamed about when i was young, one was walking through the warehouse at Larry Fritsch Cards, and when i ordered my 1972 Topps Baseball set through the "Sport Hobbyist", when I saw the picture of Frank Nagy(meeting him) with the cigarette in his mouth in the magazine sorting through all his cards.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Fritsch family and all their friends,

God bless him and his family

And how many of us wished when we were growing up we'd be on a card of some sort

Thanks for taking the time and trouble to load up the beautiful card of a pair of gents that did a great deal for this hobby. Quite a moment in time. This has been a tough year for the hobby .....

Best regards to you and your family, Rich. ---Brian Powell

Thanks Brian:

My wife went to the surgeon today as her graft for dialysis failed. She will have surgery by the end of the week if all goes well. We do have a Go Fund Me Page for her (Dena Klein) in case we are fortunate and find a kidney for a transplant. Meanwhile, we're grateful for everyone who has supported us so far.
