Just doing my best to make the our favorite opinion seller look slow and deliberate by comparison.

In defense of the show, there were a lot of tables with older cards, I just don't do older cards anymore, my current tastes tend to run larger are more eclectic.

My Son was stoked. He found and bought a rare pokemon card case and some assorted pokemon singles. Pokemon continues to be the hottest ticket in town. After scouring the show for any Cracker Jack's and finding none...I broke down and bought this Roman Anthony. Pasadena is a nice local show. Think it will continue to trend towards Pokemon and non sports. Anaheim is the larger cousin and had far more dealers and sports related material. Def room for both in the market.

I looked for Cracker Jacks too but there were none to be found. But then again I only rarely see those cards at any of the West Coast shows.

"I scored a nice common (Jack Quinn) T206,"

Steve - when you study it a bit you may change your thoughts on Jack Quinn - this guy pitched in the big leagues in 4 different decades and won 247 games with a lifetime 3.29 ERA. In addition, he has the amazing distinction of appearing in both the T206 set AND the 1933 Goudey sets as a player! Unless you count Nap Lajoie, Tris Speaker and Eddie Collins (+ others?) who were finished as active players by 1933, he was the only player to do so. Pretty uncommon I'd say - nice pick up!

Chris, thanks for the info on Quinn (I didn’t know that). It’s a beauty SGC 5.
