Volod's recollections gave me a Rockwell moment just imagining....a precocious, 8 year old Volod in late summer 1952.....
Volod's Dad, "for the last time, no, I will not take you up to Canada in order for you to buy baseball cards."
"But Dad," Volod insists "I can't get those Topps high numbers around here. I tell ya, they'll be worth a fortune one day."
