In 1978 at the Plymouth Michigan show I bought cards from Bill Heitman up in
his hotel room.He had 3 0r 4 pages of each Ruth from the 1933 Goudey set. I
wound up buying a Clark Griffith Cracker Jack from him. It was at the end of the show and when we left we had spent damn near every dollar we had on us. I also met Lew Lipsett for the first time and one of the two friends I was with built an entire T207 set in two days(lowgrade but complete for around 1k give or take a few hundred) As a 13 year old I would take the dollar my parents gave me for
the church collection and spend it on Fleer 1961 Basketball cards. I had over 30 sets which I sold for a few dollars each in the early 1970's.
