Whatever happened to these long-time dealers?

George is still around and still doing the Allentown mall shows as well as Cooperstown last I knew. He consigns every now and then.

As a side note, I always loved speaking to the older collectors and dealers at conventions. Just talking about the hobby, how things have changed, and their interactions with the legends of the game that have passed.

Might not have his spelling right, but does anyone know if George Mollyn is still with us? Bought from him a couple of times when I was a kid in Cooperstown, and he was dealing at the show at the Cooperstown Veterans Club, which I'm nearly positive was run by our own Ted Z. I must've talked his ear off about the 33 and 34 Goudey sets.

Should we start keeping a running list of old time dealers and where they set up? I sure think so!

I wasn't even sure if there was still a Cooperstown show anymore. I'm guessing he's up there for Hall of Fame weekend? Allentown might be a better shot for me to purchase something from him again, if he sets up there more often. Is there a schedule when the shows happen? Thank you!

Just got off the phone with George Mollyn, was nice to chat with him again, so thanks for the thread! He says if they put Mattingly or Munson in, he'll be at Cooperstown this year but otherwise he might be done there. He's still doing the Allentown, PA mall scene.

Just had a hip replacement but is recovering well.
