I learned a few things I didn't know. A good day. As for your questions, sorry but I don't know. And I would think Egan could even be in his 80s if he is still with us. That said, I don't know when he was born. The quest continues. Thanks for posting.

Speaking of Leaf, I'd like to figure out when the black and white set now known as 1960 Leaf became know as such in the hobby, because all the articles about it in the hobby literature at the time called it the "Sports Novelties" set, using the name that was actually on the cards.

Also, does anybody out there happen to know if Rich Egan is still around? He would be in his 70s now.
