Been putting off going through the paperwork and keepsakes when a loved one passes. I have not begun to look for the "card chest" as my dad called,it. He kept for his personal collection a number of Goudey Ruth's, Gehrigs, 52 Topps Mantles, Aaron rookies, Clemente rookies all in beautiful condition. He always liked multiples of each. He always paid up for the best conditions and if I find the chest it will be interesting to see if mint condition back in the 1970s meant mint today. Many bittersweet memories

Even if I found the chest, I am not so sure I could part with it. Sorry for your loss.

Patrick, I extend to you my deepest sympathy. It's so hard to lose your Dad; I've been through it.

Your father and I may have brushed shoulders at those huge Detroit shows. I attended from 1972 through 1976; they were usually one of the highlights of my collecting year.

Thank you for honoring him. I salute your Dad. As you truly said, that WAS a very special time in the adult card collecting hobby.

May Jesus comfort and help you and your family as your grieve and do what you must do. ---Brian Powell
