Thanks for posting and I would like to add to my earlier
post on this Thread regarding you Father in Law. I still
have most of the cards I won from Frank's auction and I
still have many of his notes that he so graciously wrote
to me. I first subscribed to his auctions in 1981 and con-
tinued into the '90s until he stopped them. The quality and
the scope of his auction material has not been surpassed
since. You always knew if you won a BB card that he had de-
scribed as Excellent to Ex/Mint, that you would receive one
that was Near Mint.
And, he knew his customers very well. He would write to me
in advance of his next auction, telling me that certain cards
that he knew I needed would be available in his forthcoming
auction. I can't really express to you how much I appreciated
him doing this and especially for knowing him. I only regret
that I never met Frank in person.
Bill, may you and your Family have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
