I got a pretty good chuckle out of the look on Yogi's face in the yoo-hoo picture.

Thanks for posting that. It was funny, although it hit a bit close to home.

Fun article and pics. I admit to also being a bit baffled by the Prewar Sports booth photo caption. I thought perhaps it was a jibe at a booth being vacant during a trade show where customers were supposedly around--there is always quite a bit of that at shows with lots of resulting whining--rather than a shot at the prewar items themselves.

They thought the Wagner gamer would easily fetch 7 figures? It went for just over $33,000.. Cool read!

Funny stuff! It was hysterical. Great sense of humor! We tend to take this too seriously anyway and it was nice for an outsider's perspective. Laugh a little.. it is only baseball cards!
