No better dealer than Mr. MaCrae
Great cards (and kids) everyone...my best pickup was the 1924 Zeenut Bernard of Vernon. I had been down to three cards to complete the 1924 set for about six years. Early in the year I was able to pick up a E.Baldwin from Mark M. (a PCL collector's best friend), and then come summertime he had the Paul Waner (a card I thought might forever elude me).
You would think the Waner would be my favorite pickup (it is a cool, pre-major league HOF'er and fairly tough card to come by)...then, why the Bernard is the favorite, you ask? Because when informed that I only needed one card to complete the 1924 set, he threw the Bernard in for free.
Thanks Mark for making my second job (vintage bb card collecting) that much easier.
