With the unfortunate passing of Larry Fritsch, the number of active pioneers in the hobby has again been lowered. Who has been around dealing the longest? Gar Miller is still selling cards, and I recently found Bruce Yako on eBay. He is still selling a few cards, so I will count him as well. Any others that have been selling for 40+ years? |

Both Pat Quinn and Jack Smalling have been selling memorabilia longer than Larry did. |

Maybe Gar Miller? I think he's been around since dinasours were puppies... (very nice gentleman too....) |

Is he still alive? As of a few years ago he was. I have had items stamped that they were sold by him back in the 1930's. |

How about Doug Averitt? He's been around for many years as well. |

Speaking of dealers from a bygone era, does anyone know whatever became of Conrad Anderson or the majority of his 750,000 item autograph inventory? I've handled quite a bit of stuff that originated with Anderson, but there HAS to be a treasure trove of material gathering dust somewhere. |

As far as I know, Goldfadden is still alive and living in Van Nuys, CA. He is nearly 100 years old. Doug Averitt has been involved in sports memorabilia since the late 60s. |

Tony G.- I think you left a key word out of your story. You said Goody reached into his pocket and pulled out 2 1952 Topps. Should the name "Mantle" have been in that sentence? Just guessing. |

Sounds like Goody should be Paul's next phone interview! |

I believe that Goody (I think it was him) was introduced to me by Bill Mastro about 4-5 years ago at the National. I had my full set of Western Playground cards (have since been sold) and Bill brought him over to show them to him. He was a very nice gentleman.....You could tell he was one of the "old guard"....regards |
