The first cards I ever bought, other than single wax packs at the corner Speedy Mart in San Diego County, were 1975 Topps Padres and Reds team sets from Larry, after seeing his ad in The Sporting News. Then in 1976, I bought the entire Topps BB set from him.
When I was working on a 1955 Topps set in the early 1980s, I finished it when I bought a Willie Mays from his catalog for $60.
