Default 1971 Detroit Show

I was 6 at my first show in Detroit in 1971. I went with my uncle and would sit while he searched through 1933 Goudeys ($0.25 per, Ruths were $1.25). Mr. Nagy's table was always the most crowded. He always had a mixture (1959 Fleer - 1961 Fleer sets on the more recent side to an amazing number of Goudeys, Mayos, T206, etc.). It is also interesting to think back to the cards in the different sets that were considered difficult (Birmingham's Home Run, Dougherty/Lord, etc.)
