Thanks. The family of Uncle Jimmy are great people and have nothing but wonderful stories to tell about him. He was a hard working factory worker then a school custodian, and going through the collection was an awesome opportunity that reminds me of what I love about baseball and collecting cards. Jimmy was a huge baseball fan that just loved collecting cards. He didn't make much money or care about the values, and he often even gave pristine vintage sets and cards away. So it's very cool to see a hard working school custodian and factory worker accumulate a massively awesome collection. So dubbing it "The Uncle Jimmy Collection" was an easy decision out of the respect for a great person, blue collar worker, and sincere baseball fan, especially since friends and family just called him Uncle Jimmy!
