I was selling at shows in when I was still in HS. I was lucky enough to buy a bunch of 50's Topps cards in the mid 80's for $60 (age 11) and that was my selling and trading stock in the 90's.
I traded a guy a EX 1955 Clemente for $300, VG White Cap Matty Old Mill back, and an awesome Payton RC. Those are all gone now, but that Mathewson sunk in the hooks.
By the way, I want that Matty back. I sold it on ebay in 2002 in a PSA 3 holder to a Mathewson collector in Seattle. I think he had a bunch of his stuff on display at the stadium for a while. If this guy rings a bell with any of you all, I would LOVE to find my first prewar card again. It is a fairly tough combo, so you never know.
Thanks for the help,
Bob
