Damn, it's like a whole pack of yappy dogs that will just not shut up.

Maybe if Leon would quit posting about it people would spot asking about it. The real whole story has to be very interesting.

I for one would be interested in the full story of what occurred subsequent to the original revelation that the card was NYPL property that led to the card being returned.

Maybe that makes me gossipy - but I didn't start the thread.

At the end of the day, a significant card, stolen long ago from the Spalding collection, is being returned to the Spalding collection. That is a good thing, something that doesn't often happen. Although every new thread provides the opportunity for those who have nothing meaningful to add about cards to gripe about something, this chapter of hobby history seems to have drawn to an end and people should move on.

I, too, am very upset with Leon. Why would he use rusted tools to break that card out. Brand new tools should have been bought and used.

And why would he not hire The Transporter to be sure it got back there safe and sound and without incident

In other news, there is a really cool Cobb with a Lenox background for sale over on the BST page. Its been on the down low but I thought I'd be the first to draw attention to it.

It wouldn't be just gossip if there's more to the story that hasn't been told and the rest of the facts were revealed.

I'm sure anyone who spends time chatting on a sports card forum would find this interesting regardless of the outcome or who's involved.
