The O'Doul Award

[Bigdaddy]

I would think a good criteria is someone who contributes to the betterment of the hobby. For example, Manny's research on the bogus signed T206s, TedZ's information presented here on the history of T206's or someone like the gentleman who brought the Cobb/Cobbs into the hobby through a unique find.

All of these contribute to the overall health and knowledge of the hobby in general and us (collectors, dealers, etc.) in particular.

The award would be issued whenever a number of folks agree that a contribution was significant (and positive).

Great idea. I would like to nominate Ted Z as our first winner of this award. His longevity in the hobby and shared knowledge of multiple T206 checklist threads should be noted. Ted Z is also well known for "Let's See Your" posts, and many members participate in them. When Ted Z posts, I take notice.

Please enter the nomination of Dr. Rhett Yeakley-one of the most knowledgeable and finest gentlemen in our hobby.

Since it is being done here then it seems the award does need to be based on contributions on this forum and for the hobby. Teddy Z gets my vote as the first recipient. Great thinking, Dr. Frank.

I would like to nominate board member "Archive" for his long-standing contributions to this board. The guy's post-count is incredible, and some of it very humorous.
