Bob is also a recognized bridge player. But having seen him teach a class I can tell you using him as an instructor is not for the feint of heart, or anyone with half an ego..
The 88 Cloth are a neat set, one of the harder Topps 80 issues.

I have been rather frustrated with another person I was dealing with who has seemingly taken my money and cards. It is so nice to have found someone who was the exact opposite of that knucklehead!

The story had a lot of back door action butt it was very entertaining. Congrats on the pick ups .

So true about it being a dream!

Incredibly kind of Bob to send you a card for free that you just got done basically saying "name your price" about. I've seen some great hobby gestures, and been the recipient of a couple, but this one might take the cake.
We should all strive for hobby harmony like Bob. |
Take the cake, ice cream and dinner for sure for me!
