Voila! You'd have thought I had struck oil when I got that little envelope! It was amazing and I remember it like it was yesterday! Sadly, Mr. Crawford found another home during my college years but I'll never forget it! Thanks for this thread!

Peace, Mike

Fantastic! and btw...That's a nice way to kick off a T206 run!

Here is my favorite Crawford item in my collection. Picked it up from a board member a couple years ago.

Thanks for sharing. I recently read The Glory of Their Times and really enjoyed Sam Crawfords story. I also have listen to his interview thanks to the post in this thread.

Killer thread topic! Thanks for all the replies folks, I remember selling a PSA 2 T-206 of Crawford at a show in Omaha about 20 years ago.
