Sad news. He was probably my favorite non-Arizona dealer of post-war cards, along with Roger N.-- he often had less main-stream stuff in good shape and was willing to chat. Bought lots of raw high-grade post cereal cards from him. Condolences to his family and friends.

I agree with all the comments; when at Beckett he always shared all his sales information at shows and when I left Beckett he was always as friendly
RIP to a good man

Unfortunately, based on what I have been reading here, I did not have the good fortune to know Dr. McAvoy. But I wish I had.
My condolences to his family and many friends here on Net 54.

I loved when Bill set up at the Hollywood Park shows...he always seemed to have some stuff stashed under the table for me to try to identify and then buy. I remember buying so much oddball from him over the years and he did not only deal in high end stuff (he kept a box or two of low end oddball and prewar under the table often). He will be missed and my condolences to his family and friends.

I just saw this today and am terribly saddened. I had some great conversations with him over the past few years at the shows here in Omaha. He was a wealth of knowledge and an incredibly nice man. Our hobby lost one of the great ones.
