One of the reasons, I suspect, that the Feds are targeting Mastro in particular, is that the Feds ALWAYS try to go after the big fish.

Another reason, and this speaks to the "card doctoring" aspect of this probe, is that one of the higher-ups on the Mastro masthead is one of the pioneers of selling altered cards. I don't think he did the actual doctoring himself, but he would set up at shows (I recall the PA-Fort Washington shows) and sell CLEARLY MARKED "restored cards". WHERE ARE ALL THESE CARDS TODAY and WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CONCEPT OF SELLING RESTORED CARDS??
