Default Mr. Mint -- Alan Rosen

Posted By: John Spencer

I recall about 5 or 6 years ago when I had set up at the Ft. Washington show, Rosen came striding across the floor like General George Patton racing across Germany. He stopped,looked at my cases and made me a ridiculous offer on 2 high grade Goudey Ruth's. After I politely declined his offer, we had a brief chat and I asked him how his show had been. He gave me sort of a sly smile and said he was still doing his damndest to screw unaware collectors and at this show he had reached the top of his game. It is one thing to take advantage of the uninformed but it is quite another to brag about it.
