Bill Heitman's book "The Monster" (circa 1980) first got me going on T206's. But, you really got me involved in the "nitty-gritty" of the T206 cards by clueing me in,
and providing me some of the tougher front / back combos.
The first one you sold me was this Lundgren / EPDG in 1984 for $ 75. ...................v

Regarding the DRUM card....recall that we made a bet in 1985 that it would take me at least a year to acquire a DRUM. Circa Spring 1985, you surprised me when
you told me you had a DRUM card for me. I got quite a chuckle telling you that you lost our bet....by your own doing.
Those early 1980's were great times in this hobby.
