Default Hobby Hall of Fame

Tried to post this earlier and it didn't appear...

There are a number of other significant collectors and hobby contributors to consider:

Jim Beckett
Bob Jaspersen
Bert Sugar
Richard Egan
Lionel Carter
Charles Bray
Dick Dobbins
John Spalding
Dan Dischley
Kit Young
Larry Fritsch

That's just a few... publishers, collectors, contributors, etc. I think you could easily come up with the top 10-15, with Burdick being the hands down #1 choice.

As an aside, someone worked on a project like this some time in the 1970's. I know I've read about it somewhere, and I'll try to look through my materials. I believe there were only 6-7 "inductees" before whatever publication was working the idea stopped publishing.
