Default Time for a show-n-tell UZIT fest, so if you have a UZIT....show it.

Here's my story regarding the UZIT Schaefer card.

Cooperstown...... circa 1987:
I set-up at the (2-day) HOF weekend Show at the VFW Bldg. It was always a really great Show. At 7 PM (Saturday nite) Don & Bill (Show promoters) ran an Auction.
I had just begun enhancing my T206 collection, by acquiring rare backs. This UZIT card was in the auction. When it was time to bid for it, I instantly raised my hand.
There was a pause, I looked around and there were no other bids on it. I won it (or should I say....."I stole it").
Does anyone here would like to guess what I paid for it ?

.



Incidentally, the next lot in this same auction was this Chance and I won it, too.....

Stay tuned to my story regarding the McGraw UZIT......you will find it quite interesting.
