Reflections on 30 years of the Philly Show

[ethicsprof]

great stories and great reminiscings.
ted,my friend, you always have the capability to distill the best of the past for us when
you put on your reflective,philosophical cap.
bill h., ole friend, your reflections hold that same depth.
many thanks to you both.
ted,i must add that your hair in the picture puts ole shag shaugnessy to shame. The t206 shag---not the later pic of him where he looks like a coach.
i didn't realize you had a bit of the ole hippie in you, ted---or perhaps,part of that coal black hair is a shadow!!!
warmest regards,
barry

From one "night owl" to another....your observations are correct on both accounts.
In the above photo, the darkness to the right of my head is a shadow, not a shag.

But, in this 1976 photo with my younger daughter Zoe, I am sporting a "shag".





Barry....me-thinks you are a very astute professor.

Best regards ole buddy,

To some of you a "dead horse" but Hunt Auctions is part of the Upper Deck trading card company and UD has a lot of experience with modern players but not as much (actually very little) with the type of dealers we'd like to see set up at Willow Grove, Ft Washington, Reading, Valley Forge, etc.

Thus, the show will cotinue to evolve and my guess is that it will end up looking like the Chicago Sun Times show when all is said and done

I must say -i feel lucky to have been a part of that with you Ted

I do have many stories also-a large portion of my collection have come form that show. I bought 2 american Beauty Gandils in ex condition from Tony and his wife for $125. Also my Lajoie bat with Pied factory 42 came from him.

I also remember buying a stack (probably 20 cards)of rare backs all ex from Ted Z. at 50 bucks each and still have them.
here is just one of them
