Well Barry i just find it odd that someone states they have 1000's of early baseball photos from my area which i know is not true, my bad for calling the guy a retard. The area i am currently at is highly collected and sought after because of the scarcity of items. Any Clyde Laughlin post card in regards to the turnpike or train wrecks is worth hundreds of dollars. Also Mont Alto and Chambersburg have avid collectors who could care less about money when it comes to aquiring items because of the scarcity. In regards to John i was not really even talking to him about the Indian photos and then he claims to be a avid collector of CDV's and photos but has to search to find Indian ones. I will also add that my cabinet is hand signed by Barry not printed. Jeez if he were so avid a collector and Indian photos are so plentiful then i figure the guy had about 50 or so laying around and would not have to search for them online. I really never questioned Dan about his remark on the value of the photo. All i said was at the auction he would never got a bid card in the air which was true so i meant the guy no harm.

What i think is hilarious about some guys on this board is that they read my posts. Trust me if i don't like a person,band or gal then i do not go near them. Really maybe perhaps if these chaps who do not care for me would just skip my posts all would be good. There was no problem between Dan and i regarding the post and i did find John to be helpful in the situation but we differ on opinion as to how rare the cabinets are.

In regards to Leon's comments Baseball cards and antiques are a business to me pure and simple. I figured this to be a public message board which anyone can join to do research and buy-sell old baseball cards. I mean what kind of people talk about family deaths and private matters over a public message board? I'm not looking to join a family because i have one and call me old school but i keep a close watch on this heart of mine, i keep my eyes wide open all the time. I'm also not looking to argue or fight with folks but if i disagree then i'll speak my mind. If someone calls me a ingrate then i call someone a retard so who cares? Leon is cool and i think he is hilarious but to many people try and hold the guy over a barrel in regards to me.

In the 70's Nashville and record execs gave up on Johnny Cash. In his last gig with Columbia records here was his response which i just love, the guy was very ballsy and took zero slack from negative naysayers. Now that is how you BRING THE NOISE to the critics baby (-:,
