Leon ...really amazing ....Maybe you could repeat some of your story as to when you started collecting and HOW you obtained some of your incredible items.....I think we all would enjoy the stories behind some of those unique and one of a kind items.....Good luck ...I am sure you will do well!!

Could not find the P&S on the auction. Read it had been pulled by Heritage due to concerns about whether it was part of New York Public Library missing part of collection. I had hoped to bid. Feel bad for Leon if this is a missing piece.

I've only been into pre-war cards for maybe 4 years but this is the coolest auction I've seen yet. I will try to win an item or two but it will not be easy!

Just perused my catalog. Loved looking at your collection Leon. Also thought it was cool to see a picture of you and your daughter. I've been partial to the Young/mullaney since I first saw it, but it's a little steep for me. However there are about 10or 12 that I'm thinking I could make a run at.

Good luck, Leon!

Just ordered my catalog a couple of days ago and haven't gotten it yet. I'm sure it will be amazing based on what I've seen from Leon's collection over the past few years here.

Leon, may your return be stratospheric!

This volume will become a valued addition to my library. It's a veritable Cardboard Collecting 101. I would recommend to anyone who plans on sticking around the Hobby that they be sure to get a copy. It's a keeper.

+1 I received mine today and am blown away!
