Thanks, Mike. We probably crossed paths but didn't know it. Each year I seem to get less and less. I maintain a special index for the National: the number of pins I bought thinking I did not have them but in fact I already did. This year the number was two. At the National I come to realize how relatively inexpensive pins are compared to other areas of collecting. While walking down an aisle I overheard one dealer tell a young collector (he seemed to be in his late 20s), in reference to a Babe Ruth item, "I can let you have it for sixty-five thousand." I kept on walking and did not hear a response if there was one.
