Barry Sloate says hello

[Leon]

Barry was one of my favorite guys on the forum. Hey Barry!

[Seven]

For the uninitiated, Who is Barry?

Regardless I'm glad to hear he is doing well. Always love some positive news!

[Fred]

Barry was part of this community for a long time. He used to have his own auctions "Barry Sloate Auctions" that had nice material. I still have several of his old auction catalogs. Great person with so much hobby knowledge, especially the pioneering days of baseball.

If he starts posting again, it'll be nice to see/read. It's been a few years now.

Happy Holidays Barry!

Hope all is well!

Hi Barry,
I hope you are well and enjoying the holidays. Your knowledge/input is missed!
I saw those 2 beautiful Mort Rogers scorecards in REA recently and they took me back to the good old days when you were with Jerry…

Regards,
Aaron Seefeldt

Barry! I hope the New Year is good to you.

You are truly missed by those of us who shared space here with you.

From time to time, when a thread gets a bit raucous, I recognize that as a moment when Barry would wade into the mess and calm us down. Thank you for binging civility and good common sense to Net54.

I wouldn't mind seeing Barry pop up on here again...his was a voice of reason and knowledge. Some of the first T206 cards I ever ordered by mail were from Barry. Not to mention him being a top notch spelling monitor and grammartarian (perhaps this made up word will provoke him to once again poke in his head, post, and rummage about the joint).
