I had to post this because it was an exciting new idea in the bay area going to a show all the way from San Jose in my 1959 Bugged Eyed Sprite that topped out at 50 miles per hour. But it was worth it! The back of this business card is a summary of T-206's I purchased from Pat who this card came from. I was 16 years old. Barry said he knew Pat.maybe some others on here did as well. Note the $55.00 price I paid for an ex/mt,(actually ex)portrait Green Cobb. I still have it!!! I paid $177.50 for 14 cards now worth 11k! :)Chance card was "cresed"

I few weeks before this show a guy displayed a card collection on "Grand Slam" magazine which had an article on the upcoming boom of baseball card collectiing! I still have the magazine with all the photos of 50's and 60's
cards which motivated me to save harder for Mark's show!






oh and the cards I left behind!
