Golden also appeared in the collector directory that Burdick published in the April 1, 1940 issue of CCB (#5), with the same address but with "All cards picturing sports desired." Scroll down in the above post to see that directory.
I assume that these directories (and probably this post of mine) are the source of the "1937 directory" and "1940" elements of the info you've listed. However, I'm not sure where "Park Pl", "unemployed", or "Post Office 1950" came from. He may very well have been mentioned other times in CCB, but if so I don't remember off the top of my head. I assume that the birth and death dates are from the databases available online and accessible through sites such as Ancestry.com. |
Thanks David, everyone! I knew you guys would have the answer. David, you're always solid with the hobby history brother! Thank you. Some of these early hobby pioneers and collectors I don't want to be forgotten and thought Edward Golden would be interesting because he's not discussed.
