Sad News Wayne Johnson

[CurtisFlood]

I first met Wayne when I set up at a couple of his hotel shows in Indianapolis. He was always a professional, but went beyond that and was kind and helpful. I've since seen him at the National, the Chicago Shows, and the Columbus shows. He is one guy that you will never hear a bad word about, if you do the person is mistaken.

It won't be the same at the shows not seeing this outstanding dealer. My condolences to his family and his great friend JD.

I've known Wayne for many years. You'd be hard pressed to find a nicer, more honorable, and more knowledgeable dealer. While he was a regular dealer at all the big shows in the Midwest, I was most impressed that he regularly set up at young Seth Murray's monthly show at the La Quinta in Indianapolis. He gave that show legitimacy and held court in the back of the room. I always enjoyed talking to him because I learned something new every time. Just last month, I had a nice conversation with him about 1966 Topps high numbers at the Sun-Times show in Rosemont, IL. His passing is a real loss to the hobby. My condolences to his family and friends.
