Default Finds/Purchases made at the 2003 Atlantic City National

Posted By: Tim Newcomb

To me, this National did seem a little quieter than the last two-- but that's a very subjective thing to react to. There is certainly some nice stuff if you're willing to scour the place, sometimes in unlikely places.

My main finds:

T206 Pfeffer with a BEAUTIFUL Red Hindu back. $210 from a major dealer not known for his low prices.

A $40 OJ whose name has faded, but the seller had it listed as Tommy McCarthy. Seth helpfully compared it to the lovely Mayo McCarthy in his auction, and we concluded it does look like the same player.

I don't know how to add images to this message, but I can email scans to anyone who wants to see them.

It was great to meet everyone: Elliot, Bill Cornell, Pete Calderon, Steve, Quan, Brooks, Jay Miller, Dan McKee and his dad, and others I'm unhappily forgetting right now.

Leon, it was even nice to see you again. The ghostly "red hindu" noises did subside after a few days.

And finally, a big old sloppy Democratic kiss to Scott B. for the great hospitality at his table. )
