Default I was at that show!

Longtime lurker here. My brother and I were at that "Baseball Nostalgia Expo." I would have been 15 years old. We ended up trading five Kahn's Wiener cards for almost an entire 1955 Topps set (I believe the dealer's name was Bob Rathgeber - something like that - a Kahn's expert). A couple hours later and we had completed the set, going from none to all in one afternoon and spending almost nothing to do it.

For a couple brothers who knew only of the Card Collector's Company and Wholesale Cards, it was like Christmas Day. The first time I ever saw a Goudey and if I recall correctly, the T206 Wagner was on display, worth over $400!!!
