Kudos to Ted. As I have tried to say the whole weekend, this is the kind of attitude that needs to be in the hobby. Thanks Ted.

And Steve, your son is a fine young man. Accolades to a very nice father. Job well done. best regards

Ted is a very good guy. I've had the pleasure of meeting him a few times at shows in PA and he has always been fun to talk to. He sold me my brown Hindu with the purple number back stamp at a great price for a Hindu.

Thanks again Ted and I'm glad others see how great a hobbyist you are.

Best,

AndyH

+1 My son is still very young (4) but I've already started him and he seems to enjoy it. Fathers and sons collecting is great because you used to always see it and now you hardly see it as much.

Very true, but I'm going to change it a little.

If the kids don't get into collecting...We will have no one to sell our cards to years from now...the cycle must continue!!!!

Over heard this young mans conversation at a couple tables and was impressed with his already known knowledge of the T206 set. Was fabulous to watch! Just a feel good story!
