I just got my recent issue of SCD and I enjoyed the article about Wholesale Cards (Bruce Yecko), Card Collectors Company (The Gellmans) and Larry Fritch cards. The article was decent. I love the hobby's history!
I remember geting SCD since the days it was owned by the Stommen family.
The Stommen folks always treated me well. The Sport Hobbyist by Charlie Brooks was another early one that treated me well. i was 8 thru 12 when I started buying cards through those papers and was happy to be treated as an adult even though my orders we're usuaally under 10.00 then!
It is sad to see SCD struggling. I'll miss TS O'Connell and I'm not happy about not getting SCD every week even if it has less than 50 pages!
My subscription ends soon and I will re-new even though I'm not happy with the changes. SCD has been a big part of my life since 1973. The convention calendar helped my business flourish in the 30+ years running shows.
Like I've said a million times, THANK GOD we have this wonderful brotherhood of hobbyists here on NET 54.
Have a great day everyone.
Your friend,
