OT-Dave Slomer

[sycks22]

I talked to him last week. He doesn't have much strength to talk on the phone anymore. He told me about the card fiasco and it's terrible to hear that especially since he's such a great guy. I wish Dave the best.

I got my first Ruth (a '33 Goudey) from David a number of years ago. When we were negotiating a price, he asked if it would be my first Babe Ruth card. When I said yes, he gave me an even better deal on it, and told me to keep it and remember my first Ruth, since it should be special.

I still have it, and it is still special. Get well soon David!

Just talked with him minutes ago. He seems in high spirits, but to get screwed out of 20k is not good.

He is gathering info on this guy, hopefully he gets his cards back.

If it wouldn't be an issue, can we get a scan of the Jackson in case it comes up for sale or auction. I would love to help catch this piece of work from flipping Dave's Card... Jeez's this really really turns my skin inside out!

yes, i will give him a call this week and see if he does have scans.

My guess is this guy who has the Joe J. rookie would not be that dumb to put in an auction or Ebay. He most likely would trade it away for equal value and sell the traded card.

David and I have had some nice chats about Old Judges over the years. He is a very personable man. I wish him the best on both fronts.
