Hi Barry! Looking at your profile and seeing a collecting interest of "baseball display pieces" really makes me wonder what kind of amazing pieces you have and hung onto. I remember seeing so many great advertising pieces in the early auction catalogs that I've never seen since. They went somewhere

I really dropped off the board because I no longer actively collect. Sure I got a little burned out too but I have mostly happy memories of the years I spent in the industry. I still have some of my favorite memorabilia but I haven't bought anything in years. No regrets.
