Shops worth visiting
The thread on the Louisville card shops got me thinking...where are there card shops ANYWHERE that possess the following attributes:
1) reasonable/realistic prices
2) a selection of cards that include both old and new
3) a reasonable semblance of organization
4) a staff that knows what they are talking about to some degree
5) a place where they are willing to retail, not just a place where they work their ebay store out of.
I used to love Lamberts in Ironton, OH, but it is long gone. I always loved visiting Chandy Greenholt's Season Ticket, though he could never be accused of organization. I guess the last shop I walked into that would APPROACH any of the attributes was Cavalier Cards in Charlottesville, VA...at least they had a small case with a T206 Cobb and a few cards from the 50s.
