Posted By: Hankron
In the near future I will be offering an online/interactive course on the authentication of prints (so you know, a baseball card is print), and a second course for photographs. It's both in depth and practical. While it covers all areas of art and collectable prints, the student will be able to focus on his or her area of choice (whether 19th century scorecards or Salvador Dali or Steiglitz's 'Camera Work'). Even if you are only a 1950s Bowman collector, you will still learn how they authenticate original Rembrandts (why is the collector holding it up to the light like that?), tobacco labels and stamps. |

I was advised by a board member that I shouldn't offer the course for free, and, after thinking about, I agree. As of now the course is off, but an advanced course on baseball photographs will be offered in the near future. I'm well aware that most will not pay for such a course. To be honest, this is no skin off my nose, as I already know the material. |

You probably shouldn't have offered if you didn't intend to keep your word.....why is it nowadays that no one keeps committments? Oh well, like you said, no skin off your nose....good luck |

I have to agree with Leon. I know that the info you have is valuable, but cancelling for the reason you did has prolly done more harm to your reputation than the goodwill you were generating by offering the class. |

I appeciate your response. If you look back in your files I think you will see that I HAVE bought 2-3 of your books and they are very good. I would also think that many other board members have bought them too. We understand it costs money to do what you do. I applaud you for all you do for the hobby in an aus gras ( I think that's the correct phrase, or is that potato's ) manner.....take care.... |

Julie, I like you. And I like poking fun at you once in awhile, as I do most most people. Anyone that told you I don't like you doesn't know me. Anyone that has ever asked me about you, I've said nothing but good things, so your informant is mistaken. |

Not seem* when flaming Scott. But trust me, profanity,ethnic and racial,coupled with phenotype slams work best! ( please refer to Tom Laughlin* aka Billy Jack for proof) But hey,you could always rise above and blow it off. We can all be card buds you know.Lastly, nice score on the B/W cough drop cards.I am sure you bought those right and made some good coin on those.I am also certain you will use the money to increase the set completions of your own personal collection which of course is great. Maybe we could all sit at a black jack table at thew National and play cards and drink.Imagine the possibilities! |

Apparently, I've created a soap opera (You know when Elliot chimes in, things have gotten out of hand). I've always been fickle and tempermental (and more than likely always will be). It's just that it usually doesn't get me into trouble as it did this time. Luckily, the course does not start until July 1st, and the dust likely will have settled by then. |

Booklets - in the past we paid you for these - keep charging and people will keep paying. If you choose to offer them in electronic format for free, that's your choice. I have no problem with buying your books - you worked hard on them, they contain great reference material, and I've purchased five so far. |

Whether due to obscure directions or that I'm slow to take a hint, no one showed up for the 2nd class. When the teacher outnumbers the students this time of year, that usually indicuates that either summer break already started, I've accidentally been giving lectures in storage room again, or that the Dean didn't have the heart to tell me that I was fired last semester (that would explain the strange person sitting at my desk every day). |

To be honest, Jay, it's not a big deal. I had a strong feeling that it would not prove to be most board member's cup of tea (dry material), despite initial expressed interest. I re-offered it mostly becase you and Leon shamed me into it (Not to suggest that your points were not correct). I will now enjoy the summer break like everyone else. Class and subject is officially closed. |

I could be mistaking but I think most folks never put the puzzle back together, so to speak. You might have come back and said that you would give the first class for free as you originally planned but.... after there was some misunderstanding I just lost interest in it and/or forgot about it. There are so many things going on in my/our lives that I/we just didn't keep up with when it was, or if it was going on as scheduled, etc.....kudo's for trying though.....enjoy the time off .....best regards |

I more than likely will write a number of short articles on specific subjects. I VERY strongly recommend that folks buy a micscscope of at least 80 times power (many handheld models can be bought for under $20, including on eBay). Otherwise, it's just me and Julie. Most of my little articles are posted at the 'Pack Secrets' link at the website, so merely check periodically. |

And in case you are wondering why they would have switched to an inferior form of paper, the answer is simple: it was cheaper. |
