Card shops in Cooperstown
 
As noted elsewhere I'll be there next couple of days for screening of movie. I know from past it's not the vintage card haven one might expect but any suggestions?

There's a small shop not too far from the Baseball Hall of Fame. I found a Sovereign 350 Merkle t206 for only $20, so there are little deals here and there.

We were just up there on Thursday. Not a whole lot of cards in town, though there are some. It's more memorabilia type stuff. Try Pioneer Sports Cards on Main St. and Baseball Nostalgia in the Doubleday Field parking lot :) .

Jus got back--yes, the shops are truly awful for pre-war, few cards at all, the ones they have almost all crappy and double the price.

But I had lunch with the mayor and he's great and a true collector (post-war) and author of forthcoming major book on the 1981 strike and impact. And Obama coming to the HOF on Thursday! Swell little town and people very warm and smart.
