Default The Collector You'd Most Like To Meet

Santos, Last name not known

My father and i would drive up 9w to Nyack NY on sunday mornings to this older gents shop. I think it was over an antique store. Santos had the most amazing older cards to a 14 year old kid just getting started.
Anyway at one point my dad bought all of his sets from 1948-1955. He was a bowman guy having grown up in the late 40's early 50's.

Sorry for getting of topic but this guy had his cards stored in those old dewey decimel system drawers. (Remember those) Anyway he had the most amazing things in those drawers.

I would love to find out he was still going strong and sit and chat for an afternoon overlooking the hudson.
