One of the smartest things I ever did in card collecting was to call Lionel Carter on the phone out of the clear blue and ask him about his T206 Eddie Plank, which I had just bought in a Mastro Auction. I even recorded the conversation on my computer and uploaded it to my website for everyone to hear. And I had the pleasure of exchanging several letters with the man before he passed away.
I did the same thing with Jeff Morey, who as far as I'm concerned is the king of all that is signed pre-war cards. Being able to talk with both of these legends of the hobby about their collections, of which I own an extremely small part, has been one of the biggest thrills of my collecting life.
