Default Huge Finds? How often?

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

A lot of us have experienced "finds" to varying degrees, it all depends what we like to collect.

Some of my better finds are....

Two years ago.....400+ T206's from an original collection of the seller's Grandfather.

22 years ago....1948 BB & FB, 1949 BB, 1950 BB, 1952 FB (large), and 1953 BB Bowman uncut complete sheets.

20 years ago....1954 Bowman original printing plates (all 7) of the 32 cards per plate.

But, these finds are trivial.....some of the most significant finds are documented in Alan Rosen's book.

Whether you "love or hate" him, put that aside, and read his book....it's fascinating.
