I didn't think Alan Ray -- the pre-Mastro owner -- was the one who cut the Wagner from the sheet. I had thought the provenance did not go back all the way to the sheet and I also thought Ray would not say where HE got the card.

But there are several members at least who know the story better.

Very interesting and entertaining. He should write a book. His enthusiasm for cards is obvious.

Didn't Mastro buy the sheet from Rob Lifson, or Rob loaned him the money to buy it himself?

Prison really aged him.

Let that be a lesson to all you youngsters out there.

I think Rob was a lender, not a seller.

He actually is a good speaker and told some fascinating stories.

IT was a bit long but pretty entertaining.

As for the truth of it all

That is for others to decide

Worth the watch
