When I was first getting into the hobby around 2006, the first vintage card I bought was a 1949 Bowman Bobby Doerr. As I was paying for it, I was telling the LCS owner I planned to send it in to him to sign, and before I could finish the sentence he was shaking his head no. I eventually came around.
