jay behrensBarry, you give the average collector too much credit. Most collectors just jump into the hobby and know absolutely nothing about about vintage cards beyond some of the the players and the names of a few sets. I take for granted the knowledge I have about cards, but I am not your normal collector. I made a point of getitng to know everything I could about the cards before I started spending a lot money on them and this was back in 1982 before Is tarted big money on cards. I was at the Willow Grove show in 1982 and didn't buy the complete set of t201s I came home with until I had to prominent dealers I was friends with check out the cards before I bought them.

Last year there was a fistfight between fans and players at a professional basketball game. Not to be outdone, the National Hockey League has announced that not only will several fans be beaten every period, but one lucky fan each game will be run over by the Zamboni.
