I was lucky enough in 1982 to be stationed in Philadelphia and got to know Bill Bossert and Ron Oser. I got a nice start on the t205 set by getting 37 cards from a group of freshly opened packs I was lucky enough to help open. Then with the help of those 2 dealers, I was able to track down the toughies right away at the Willow Grove show in the spring of 82 and few other shows around that time.

That Willow Grove show still stands out in my mind for the staggering amount of rare material there. If I knew then what I knew now, I would have scraped up the $5k for the Wagner and bought all those e107s, OJs and t3 set I saw, among other incredible things.
