    Mookie, way to carpe the diem and meet Dr. Beckett when he could not escape! 😆👍You totally kicked butt in the corn-hole game! 🤯🤯🤯Sweet Larry Doby Exhibit! Marvelous Merkle, out-maneuvering the aggressive Merkle hoarder! Oh man! The glorious Dan Dee Doby! 🤯🤯🤯 Dan Dee Doby clubbies for life! Way to take advantage of the pre-National card economy to pick up the grail Jackie signature! 🤯🤯🤯Stunning and superbly centered Seaver! It was so awesome to meet you and Pete! 😊👊

    Mook,
    SO much hobby love in this recap! It was amazing to finally meet you and hang out in person.
    Congrats ONE last time on landing that grail-level Jackie auto.. I didn’t see anything even close at the National (unless you wanted to spend $3-4K 😅).
    AMAZING Seaver/DENEHY RC - some real eye candy there.
    I absolutely love that Dan Dee Doby as well.. i’ve been much more enamored by the 50’s food & bev stuff lately (Red Heart, Dan Dee, Hires, Wilson Franks… etc.).. SO much character and also SO scarce compared to Topps and Bowman stuff.
    Here’s to an epic week in our hobby history!
    p.s. You won’t eat the gum…

      Iconic, it was such a treat to finally meet you and see your killer pickups early! I wonder if the Arizona collector who wrote that letter to Cy Young really does have the best collection? Maybe you can reassemble it?? (hey - you challenged me on the gum, it's only fair). Seriously - I was blown away by your generosity, and super super pumped to spend even a few minutes together. We'll have to do it again dude!!!

    Great video my man, I even watched the whole thing this time! What a blast it was to meet everyone in the card community and what an honor it was to chauffeur a famous internet celebrity like yourself around Cleveland! Seriously though, I’ll cherish the memories from that trip forever. A big highlight was meeting Midlife Graig and absolutely love fact his dad is the new custodian of that 53T Mantle. So cool. All in all a VERY successful trip for both of us with some killer pickups. I’m really glad I went and got to share it with you pal. It might even inspire me to make a video myself… 🤔

      Reuben, you’re a real boy!! Hahaha it was great meeting you in real life and super fun to exchange our bad jokes without a keyboard! Theo is the Bluto/Brutus of the hobby. No doubt.

      Ha! I think I glazed over on my own script! It was a looooong week, Carlyle. Viva Bill Denehy!!!
