The exhibits posted are amazing! Congrats to all that own them. I have nothing to compare regarding exhibits, but I would like to show this vintage George Burke postcard autographed by Debs Garms with a little backstory. Several years ago I purchased a collection from a gentleman named Gordon. Included in his collection were several autographs that he told me he acquired through the mail He was around 10 at the time (1976). Included were several autograph's including a signed 55 Koufax rookie (I had PSA certify it and sold it a couple of years back). This postcard really stayed with me, because Mr. Garms not only took the time to write Gordon back, but looked through his keepsakes and sent him this postcard from when he played with the St. Louis Browns (32-35). As pictured, I had PSA authenticate the card, letter and autograph. Gordon ended up with 4 autographs!
What a nice man Debs Garms was to do this. How often would that happen today? Makes one wonder.
