Posted By: <b>Dylan</b><p>Is Rosen really the largest buyer in the world and with 136 million in total sales? I know hes not even a collector, purely a speculator in the hobby, are those numbers true?

Posted By: <b>Josh Adams</b><p>I went to the show, picked up some '33 Goudeys, and now I'm only 9 cards away. Great success!<br /><br />That Sun-Times show is getting smaller each year. I hope it doesn't finally just disappear. Seems like ebay is really doing a number on big shows like this one.<br /><br />On a side note, Mario Lemieux was signing for the first time ever at a card show. I think he was asking $250 per auto, and the line was out the door. Crazy. And he didn't even play deadball era baseball!
