My entry as a qualifier for "big show"
was at Shea Stadium many years ago. Lew Lipset, Bill Heitman, Robert Lifson and many other quality dealers were there. This event would have been well before TPAs. I bought N172's from Bill Heitman and a lot of general "stuff" from other dealers but the hit of the show (this is a true story) was a table where Topps 1952, raw and unprotected, were piled in a spread-out heap. Rob Lifson probably remembers, for I believe at one point he was successful in buying the entire lot.
