Default "Race card played in failure to sell Honus collectible"

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

I don't know the writer of the article but I do deal with the Daily News and its writers very frequently. Trust me, they make mistakes but if pointed to one they usually acknowledge it. While the paper is a NY tabloid it has a larger circulation than almost any newspaper in the country - and NY readers are espeically nasty and unforgiving if they are misled. The article about the card was hardly a big story in the paper that day so it's hard to imagine that the error (and I agree it was an error) was made in order to drum up interest in the article.
