Wow, I didn't know Dave was still in the business. I used to go to his card store in San Diego all the time in the early 1980s before I joined the Air Force. I went back a few years later when I was home on leave, and he'd sold it to someone else. I remember the day I went there, they had just experienced an older lady hitting the gas instead of her brake, and plowing her car through the front door and window a day or two prior.
I loved going to his shop, since he had a massive amount of cards, all sorted numerically by year. He kept them in wooden file cabinets behind the front desk, where only he or his wife Patty would handle them. He had the best and most easily accessible inventory in town.
