For anyone that doesn't know, John, imo has more knowledge of baseball cards than almost anyone I know. And I know a few people. And if you want to chat with him he will be the first table when you walk in the National, always.

I second Leon's words above about John's knowledge of of ALL sports cards. His memory is off the charts. I have known John since the early 70's and he can tell me trades we made in 1973 that I have no recollection of or if I even collected those sets then!

He is always willing to discuss any sets you have a question about. Also his collection is second to none! Just don't try to get anything out of his collection. It won't happen!

enigma1132 on EBay? If so, I’ve bought from him many times. I like browsing his and kryvintage’s stuff.

I enjoy looking at John’s stuff on ebay as well! He has great stuff most other sellers just don’t offer!

Coincidentally I am kryvintage in ebay. Thanks for checking out my stuff as well!

Knowing John (hi John) a little bit, that has never even crossed my mind (seriously).

While I don't respond 100% of the time, it's always a pleasure to see such postings that include responses from long-time collectors. You guys really rock.

To remember opening packs in the 50s is just so amazing. I am getting on in years too (just 73) and remember opening packs in the early 60s, so I always appreciate your input.

Here's one of my questions that I have not answered yet: I have a pack of 1948 Leaf that is in a generic wrapper. My theory is that it is a football pack but I saw an auction a while back that called it a baseball pack, obviously to sell it for a higher price and it was graded I think. I have also heard from someone that when they opened such generic packs, some were baseball and some were football. Can anyone confirm or deny such information?

Stop by to say hi at the National, as I am easy to remember where I set up: 6 booths in the main entrance at Booth 1100.

Lastly, Thanks again for all of the great information over the years. Leon, you also deserve alot of the credit too!!

Hi Steve

Regarding your question.....
"Here's one of my questions that I have not answered yet: I have a pack of 1948 Leaf that is in a generic wrapper.

Post a scan of this LEAF wrapper, and perhaps I can answer your question.
