Ran a marathon at age 42. Holy smokes. Probably hasn't been duplicated since.

Met and shopped with Dick many times @ GA Music. Was still sitting up at The National as recently as a few years ago. I haven't been in a while, may still be.

Yes Uncle Dick was at the National last year and will be in Chicago again this year. If anyone has an extra copy of the card in the original post, please PM me as I would like to have him sign a copy for me at the next show.

I think Doctor D's card could be a variation. If he was born on 11/29/38, he was not 42 for the running of the marathon in 1982. Anyone know if there's a corrected version out there??

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I talked with Uncle Dick a couple months back, and he is retiring from 'the show circuit' later this year. But if I understood correctly, he plans on still setting up at future Nationals, assuming he doesn't "sell out" his business entirely.
