Not to hijack this thread but just to let folks know: it was Greater Boston Sports Collectors Club President Bill Carvalho who passed away in February. Mr. Carvalho was a very nice gentleman and long time hobby figure. His dedication to the GBSCC, it's monthly meetings and the annual convention ("Shriner's show") made it possible for thousands of folks to enjoy the hobby as it used to be. Many years ago, Mr. Carvalho also ran a first rate hobby shop called Bill's Place in Reading, MA. Long time hobbyists in the Merrimack Valley / North Shore may remember it. I certainly do...and I will always remember Mr. Carvalho. If there's a hobby Hall of Fame, there's no doubt he belongs.
