Matt and Turner,

Congrats on reaching your goal and putting together a fine set! I wish my dad had an interest in cards. You guys are very lucky to have each other in the collecting game. You two are certainly some of the classiest guys I've met from the board.

Best,

Andy

Matt: It was nice to see you and Turner in Baltimore. You have raised a fine son. Congratulations to you both for a great hobby accomplishment. People aren't knocking off Master Sets every day.

Excellent post. It was great to finally meet Turner at the show, and I'm glad I could help a tiny bit with the quest!

EVER. It reminds me of the hundreds if not thousands of shows auctions etc I have been to with my dad over all these years. I think Robert Hunter said it best "Oh what I want to know is where does the time go".
