Me, too!! Congratulations, Irv. Between your cache of nice vintage Bee Hives and the '52 Topps Mickey Mantle, your Dad left you some real treasures.
Say, take the time to ask your father how he came to get the '52 Topps Mick. Write it up as a story for all of us. A card passed down from a dad is something any of us (except those who hate it when anyone has something nice happen to them) would appreciate hearing about.
I have a treasured story of how I got a '52 Topps Mantle through my widowed mother. Sadly, I chose to sell it to help raise money for a down payment on a house. Good reason, but......
Take care, pal. ----Brian Powell
