Sad News Folks sorry Long Time Hockey Collector and dealer Phil Spector passed away this morning. His daughter Jill just called me. So Sad. Phil was a super guy!

Always looked forward to seeing "Philadelphia Phil" and Joan at the Philly Shows. I remember one year he showed me a hockey card in which he was in the background....wish I could remember which one.

RIP Phil

It was a 1990-91 Pro Set card. Joan was also in the background. I have a signed copy at home and will look for it when I get home later.

He was always fun to talk to at the Philly Shows. I remember one year he had a stack of Old Judges in a sandwich bag - $75 each. Different planet then

Default Sad News

Wow- very sad to hear about Phil. A great guy I have known pretty much my whole hobby life. He always had a great story - and was always hustling. Always fair deals- and a nice guy to talk to. I served with him on the National Sports Collectors Convention Committee for a few years- and even played with him on a basketball team at the National one year at one of the Texas Nationals. (You always have to love a guy who would set a good hard pick for you).

RIP- this hobby will miss you-

Kevin
