I saw this on Jimmy Spence's FB page today and wanted to share. I have known Mike for more than 30 years and will miss our yearly National chats and other phone conversations.
"Today we said goodbye to our friend, Mike Kushner (age 74) of Howell Baseball. Attendees included at the West Paterson cemetery were Les Wolff, Chuck Tarantino, Mike’s son Warren, Glen, myself and Keith Vari. Kushner promoted baseball card shows in the mid-1980s and throughout the 1990s and was a popular dealer with his massive Ballcube Wall that would come crashing down every three years or so. Our industry lost a mensch. He’s in my Hall of Fame."
