Great memories of the Trader Speaks
Great to see the first issue of this! Dan Dishley founded the publication and in the later years I believe Sonny Jackson ran it until the end. Great guys that truly pioneered the hobby. While were at it Charlie Brooks' Sport Hobbyist was one other early paper. The Stommen's founded SCD. I met these fine people way back and they were all great. There were others, but these are the ones I used daily!
I remember bidding on a run of 52 Topps Hi's from Bob Thing of Maine around 1980. He broke up the run and we all paid record prices at the time! Mint commons ran around 30.00 and I paid 800.00 for a perfect Mantle.
