Working in Greensboro,NC for the last few weeks, today , I decided to see if they were any card shops in the area that had any prewar cards. The first call, a youth answered that did not even understand what “prewar” meant. After educating him, he said,” All we have is modern”……whatever that means
Not to be discouraged, I called the next shop on my list…..Score More Sports Collectibles in Winston-Salem. The young man that answered DID know what prewar meant and then said, well we have a few T206’s, so I drove the 26 miles to the shop. When I entered the shop, no one was there except the young man running the shop. I ID’d myself as the caller on T206’s and he directing me to the case where I spied at least 20 cards. My anticipation grew….While I was going through my list and pulling cards I needed , he brought out a box full of slabbed T206’s which were not priced yet. So then, I went through the box 5 at a time pulling cards I needed . I would say the box contained another 40 plus. The problem for me is that , once you past 400 in your collection, you seem to already have more of the cards than not.
BUT…..I did manage to add 12 beautifully graded cards with AMAZING eye appeal. The prices were quite reasonable and he gave me an additional discount for buying the 12. So , even though I missed the National again this year( hopefully next year), I was able to have a great afternoon of collecting. If you are looking for T206’s and are in the area……check these guys out…..I’m certainly glad I did.
