To my eyes the only real story in 2020 (separate of course from the Covid havoc that permeated every aspect of our lives) was the steady drumbeat of extensive, highly coordinated, highly sophisticated fraud in nearly all corners of the hobby, met with a universal shrug of the shoulders, yawn, and a "what'cha gonna do really" by most collectors. Lower head, forge ahead. What's a little criminality among friends.
In some pursuits, this stuff would be considered shocking. In this hobby it's just the price of admission I guess.
As far as 2021, I can't wait to see the next batch of 1,000 pristine autographed Goudey cards that suddenly appear out of the ether.
