I shall always remember getting my first pre-War card, a T207 of Walter Johnson, in a trade for some 1960 Topps cards with Bill at his Maryland brick-and-mortar store circa 1990. This began my gravitation to becoming predominantly a pre-War collector, especially of WaJo and Sam Rice cards. Rocky, Bill also told me many years ago that he is a distant relative of HOFer Miller Huggins. RIP, Bill.

If I remember correctly, Miller Huggins was Bill's great-uncle.

Many condolences to his family and friends. I was stationed at Fort Meade from 1979 to 1981. Made many trips from Baltimore to Wheaton. Bill was great. I think he was with Nick Schoff at the House of Cards? Maybe not.
