I had one of those calls that didn't go quite how I envisioned. They call me because a mutual friend knows I am in to baseball cards. I meet with the widow (85ish), and she describes things and mentions there is a full set of garbage pail kids in there. I think, well that is an interesting sidelight we'll see what else. Turns out there is not a single sports card at all, just the GPK (it was a complete set, kind of interesting) and some 90's Marvel. I helped them sell, but I had visions of a stack of 52 Mantles!
