Whatever happened to Dennis C. Purdy, Sr., the editor & publisher of the Vintage & Classic Baseball Collector magazine? I kind of miss that old, outspoken agitator!

So do I.

Is that magazine still in publication? I'd like to find out.

It hasn't been in publication for several years. Complete runs of the set are invaluable to learning about the hobby. Dennis certainly said what was on his mind.

Of all of the various magazines, I liked what Dennis had going the best. It was the best thing since The Old Judge. Dennis was a straight shooting fellow. You'd have thought he was from Texas...

Someone on here messaged me and sent my regards along to Dennis last year.
I'll never forget Dennis' article on Alan Hager: A buffalo Hunter in the wild west or his PSA article!
No matter how great or controversial the articles were, Dennis always said he had more info to publish later. He called them the Paul Harvey pages!
