I didn't realize you were that young either. Makes me wish I started collecting T206 at 15. Keep up the good work Waz!

Upon learning that you are 15 years old, my first thought was that if I had started collecting T206 at 15 (in 1971), I would probably own a half dozen Wagners and Planks. On further consideration, I would probably be slamming my head against a wall on a daily basis for selling those Wagners and Planks in 1978 to buy a used Firebird that ended up in the junkyard after a year. Hope you keep up your passion for collecting and pass it on.

Awesome job Waz. Keep up the good work man. As others have said you really do handle yourself well at your age. I wish I was buying t206 when I was 15. I still kick myself for not looking for them back then. I just always thought they were going to be too expensive so I never did.

Best,

AndyH

Wazoo- do you expect the article to be published in a local paper? If so, it would be great if you could post it for us to see. Keep up the good work!

It should be posted by now. I'm not sure. It was taken in a different state, but the man said he would send me a copy. I'll let you know. Thank you

This sounds like it:
http://troyrecord.com/articles/2012/...8497707222.txt

I typed in "sports cards t206" in google news and this is one of two stories that popped up. The other was about a stolen collection, and this story has a lot of your specifics. So I assume it is correct.
