Default Thank You, David

Enjoyed reading this. Decades ago I subscribed to the Tribune but I found that they had a tendency to pile up. It's my "collector" gene gone awry! Peace.

Based on the thread title I thought this was going to be a contemporary Black Sox story.

As the popular press picks up these stories and the novices flood the stores and breaks, historically this is the peak of the bubble, like that loony tunes 1991 Anaheim National. I'm clearing all of the dreck and speculative stuff out of my collection while the fever is in full force.

You have to wonder when CNN & the Tribune are picking up the story.
