Thanks Patrick. Hope you are doing well. Bruce talked about the card often, as it was probably his favorite piece. But he never once mentioned that he knew it wasn't Van Haltren, and it never crossed my mind to question it. And you are right that he didn't care. I think the grade and its value were what most interested him. It was a type card so the player didn't matter. This is all new to me.
