Default Nagy Collection

Posted By: joe maples

Hi there, Frank Nagy set up at most of the shows in Michigan, Plymouth was the big one in the late 70's and 80's which was run by a couple named Toerpes(spelling?) This was before Jim Hawkins bought the show from them, Frank had an extensive collection, file cabinets full of tobacco cards. Bill Mastro before his auction days was always at Frank's side at the same table. I think Frank took him under his wing in the early days. I was under the impression that Bill bought most of the collection when Frank died. I'm not sure what this Nagy collection will entail, if it is the original it should be something.

Joe
