Hi-Lites from the Philly Show....including a new Doyle error card.

These two kids, were not only T206-wise, they were wise shoppers. The 1st time they came to my booth about 2 PM on Sunday.
They checked-out my stuff and asked about my prices. Then they dragged their Mom and Dad to other booths. Then about 3 PM,
they returned to my set-up and started their conversation about the numerous T206's in my Junk-box and my binder. I sold them
the 5 - T206 cards at 1/2 price. They thanked me and asked me for my business card.

Also, they are avid Phillies fans and they had come there for the autographs.....Cliff Lee was thru signing at 2 PM. This was a rare
example of having popular local star(s) signing also benefiting the dealers.

Incidently, I think Cliff Lee was the most popular star all weekend. Even more popular than Carlton, Rose, and Schmidt. Lee signed
items for more than 200 people.

I would bet that these brothers will return to the Philly show in March (2010). It's anyone's guess if their parents will go as far as
Baltimore next summer.

Can you please share with us the other 2 scenarios regarding the Joe Doyle error cards at the Philly Show ?

I recall 2 - Joe Doyle error cards "walked-in" to the Philadelphia Convention Center Show (circa 2000). One of these was a real one;
and, the other turned out to be a fake. However, I don't think you are referring to them ? ?

Teddy:
You may be correct in that it was the Sports Fest Shows; I thought they were the Ft Washington shows and I was told they showed up one show each.

Since you were there, and I only read the stories in Trade Fax; I bow to the primary witness on the subject

It was sports fest, I was there and the dude that sold the fake Doyle came straight to my table and spent several thousand $$. He was shaking like a leaf, I should have known something was wrong then but I never saw the card. Alan had it by then and I believe it may have been slabbed quickly. Dan.
