Kevin,
Welcome to the board. Always great to have knowledgeable people come on to the board. The more info shared the better.
Best,
Mark

Wow!
Ron Dross and Bobby Moore mentioned together in a thread. I just had a flashback. It's like Deja Vu all over again. I remember those plaques well. I have a 10-12 pages packet of photocopies around here somewhere of those. I don't remember Bobby Moore specifically being involved, but I do remember a binder with 4 pocket pages of those plaques coming to my table at one of the midtown Manhattan shows run by The National Pastime. It might have been a 3000hit show at the hotel across the street from MSG on 6th between 31st and 32nd.
The show was real PIA to get into as a dealer. Tiny elevators. If I remember correctly the Nat Past bought quite a bunch of that lot.

Ron was quite a piece of work. Really ballsy. A lot of people bought his stuff, because they wanted to believe it was real. The stuff he came up with was unreal. IIRC, he sold an Addie Joss cut in around 1982 about 2wks after he purchased some old Sporting News papers.
