Fellow board members:

I'd appreciate it if you all would be willing to let me know if you see any of these cards come up for sale on EBay, Amazon, or elsewhere online. They were delivered to my address and scanned by my postal carrier (who I know well and trust) and left up against my apartment door at 4:29 pm yesterday afternoon. Sometime between then and 5:00 pm, when I got home, another tenant or guest of a tenant, helped themselves to the cards. I have already spoken to the postal carrier, my neighbors, and the Salem, MA police and will be meeting with the postmaster as well as talking to and sharing pics with my local pawn broker downtown. They aren't terribly valuable, about $70 spent on the group, but my hobby budget isn't that big and replacing the Williams might take some time due to scarcity. If you see them, you can either PM me or send an email to ajbaxter1975@hotmail.com.

Thanks, Adam

If you have a PSA account, add those certs to your registry so that you'll be notified if someone attempts to register them.

Adam that sucks, hope they make it back to you.
& think about obtaining a P. O. box so this won't happen in the future

That sucks. I would check the trash dumpster. Chances are they don't collect cards and might not know there is any value to them. They might have just thrown them away after seeing what was in the package. Hope you get them back.

Thanks for the kinds words, everyone.

Also, good suggestion on the PSA registry, John. I don't have anything up there myself, but thanks.

If you want, I will add them to mine and let you know if someone else tries.

That would be most appreciated if you'd be willing to do that, John. Thank you.
