      Considering the guy's known character, I don't think I'd tell him. If I was dealing with someone who was legitimately in the dark and was playing on the up and up, I would do so too. ~Allon

      Probably the same thing he did. I am sure it was a lot of money and that guy probably thought he was getting one over on the buyer.

    thanks for posting the article he wrote. What a lucky guy to have a Craig Kriendler painting. I met him years ago at I believe one of the Chicago Nationals. Wished I sprung for one of his paintings then as he was just starting out. He was a very nice fellow and that Josh Gibson painting is amazing. Great story.

    According to a newspaper article, Gibson hit a called shot in my hometown. Paige was there too. Ball went over the fence and over the river behind the fence.

    His past Clemente thing is unethical for sure, but I wouldn’t be able to use that as a reason to justify the Gibson purchase. To me this is like a value box purchase at a card show. If you have a 1/1 in the box I’m assuming the seller didn’t know, didn’t take the time or thought it wasn’t worth much. Fair deal for the gibson(s) - offer for the lot and profit lol.

    This is the guy who tried to sell pieces of Clemente's plane? No, I wouldn't correct his statement that he had no Gibsons. Also, I would have kept one or two for myself: one for my collection and one for the day that the price exploded. What happened to the other Negro League stars in those binders?

    If dude just got done offering me Roberto Clemente’s plane parts I’d probably bite my tongue. Best part about the hobby is the people, also the worst part about the hobby is the people. Usually I’m ok telling someone who doesn’t know what they have of they have something big. But in an odd situation like that I would probably keep quiet.

    That's kind of messed up, of course he should tell him what he had. I feel like that's a scumbag move on his part; he clearly took advantage of him. I don't respect people like that.
    However, as for your grails, those are YOUR grails.. if your grail is a '91 Upper Deck Pedro Rookie and mine is a '55 Topps Don Hutson, why does it matter? We are equal..

    I have always thought it would be a blast looking for card stuff the south american & the Caribbean. Not only do you have negroleague stuff, but also topps Venezuelan and rare soccer cards. I have always wondered how topps Venezuelan was distributed and have never got a rock solid answer besides speculation that it was in packer packs. Imagine finding unopened topps Venezuelan packs, high grade cards or the holy grail in my opinion an uncut sheet.
