Buck Barker was a legendary old time collector, and is considered a founding father of the hobby. And yes, the card you scanned once belonged to him.

In today's world, Buck's letter would have been an email and probably lost forever.

Default One of the very few things I ever regret selling
Was I ended up with Buck Barker's Post Cereal Card collection after he passed and several of the cards I sold had his signature on the back. I was young then, although reasonably into hobby history, and now realize I never should have sold ALL those cards but kept 1-2 for myself.

I do have some Buck Barker "archive' materials so if Leon ever wants to come over and scan some of them for the board he is welcome to do so. We'll save that project for early next year though

Rich
