The new owners are football heavy, but they manage to throw the baseball crew a nice bone every now and then. It was good for the collection to live close to Richmond and the CSA show.

Marco and CSA were consistently great at Tuff Stuff, Chantilly, Oaks, and Edison. The new CSA guys seem to have taken their cue from him in running good shows, but the hobby is a long way from its glory days for vintage collectors and dealers, at least until those terms take on new meaning.
