Keith Olbermann on 1973 New York card convention

[TheNightmanCometh]

Shoot, I wish I was just a few years older, so I would have become a basketball fan earlier and bought some boxes of 86-87 Fleer when they were like $14. Instead I got stuck buying boxes of 90-91 Fleer.

WOW!! A 33 Goudey set WiTH Lajoie and 1/3 of them signed (with Gehrig, Ott, etc) for $700

So THAT's where that Bill Haber photo comes from!

About 5 years ago I sold a Zeenut to Olbermann on Ebay.

It was a 1928 Zeenut Ossie Vitt PSA 5.

I remember the 70s. 14 % mortgages, 18 % interest on money markets, and waiting 45 minutes to fill up with gas. Plus now I wish I was younger. Boy, do I miss those days

Great item, thanks for posting

Is Mr. Olbermann a member of Net54?
Has he posted here
He had a spot on CBS in Los Angeles way back in 80's. I remember as a kid he brought cards to the show from time to time.

I enjoyed his show on ESPN last year till they cancelled it Recall he brought in a Babe Ruth bat on the show for a current player to get a feel for the bat
Wish he lands another position maybe with MLB network.

He is a member and posted once or twice.. He might still lurk, might not. Of course he is an Avid/passionate card collector; always a big plus in my book. My few communications with him have been pleasant.

Does anybody recall the furor that erupted when Keith bought a T206 Doyle Nat'l from Alan Rosen graded by the old SGC (Joe Merkle and co.) that turned out to have been doctored somehow to include the Nat'l. All hell broke loose, people were running for cover and, if I remember correctly, SGC gave Olbermann a full refund to try and salvage their reputation. Rosen, naturally, was screaming for some type of compensation, but I don't think he got anything. It seems his prominence in the hobby started to decline after that.
