Dan was a good man who truly loved the hobby and sharing information. His help in my postcard cataloguing for the Beckett Almanac back in the day was above what was needed.
One thing he would organize, and I'd like to see one last time is in 2020 to have a "postcard" show in one of the side rooms at the National to honor his memory. Rich

I did a lot of trading with Dan in the 80's. We would write every team several times for postcards, super fellow. I have a file with many of his SCD articles saved.

Damn. I corresponded with Dan, off and on, for years. We both had regular columns in Frank and Vivian Barning's Baseball Hobby News back in the Eighties. As others have said, a good man and a generous collector. I last saw him at the second(?) Baltimore national, and it makes me smile to remember him surrounded by the postcards he knew so well.
A very serious loss for the hobby, and for his loved ones. One less true collector amongst us...

Dan helped me assemble a great deal of my Cardinal Team Issued PC collection. Very knowledgeable and always willing to share info and help. He will be missed and my thoughts go out to Janice and his family.

That’s sad. I used to be on his distribution list for all postcard auctions. He was old school. But always eager to help. I am sad, but not surprised. Another good one gone but not forgotten.

Missing Dan Even
Dan was a super guy, who I will miss. Dan and I would spend a lot of time together at the National working the dealer booth lottery and attending board dinners. He was a wealth of hobby knowledge and a true gentleman with a great sense of fairness.
He did not actually make it to the National this year- but his spirit was with us there and will remain with us for a long time. This has been a tough year with so many hobby friends passing on. Dan is right there at the top of the list of those who will be sincerely missed by so many of us.
