Agreed. He has been missed. He helped get me started on my Helmar Stamps collection. He and I talked on the phone for quite some time to discuss the set (and other projects) back in 2013. I assume we'll see his complete set of Helmar Stamps (including actresses) and many other sets he dabbled in during the upcoming REA auctions. His postcard collection is/was simply outstanding! He left us way too soon and it scares me that he died at my current age. Not cool!

The Helmar baseball and actress sets were in the latest REA auction. Hoped you'd won the baseball to complete your set.

Tim posted this in his cut art thread, but I'm happy to post it here as my pickup this month.

Green Cobbs may be hot, but the bat off has the most stunning background, and Tim really nailed Cobb's eyes on this one!

In the immortal words of Britany Spears, “Oops I did it again”. Couldn’t pass up the opportunity to own this. Very psyched
