Cards were BIG business when I started in 1981. First time I saw a graded card was the 2000 All Star Fan Fest. I bought a 1975 Brett rookie in a PSA 8 and then broke it out of the slab when I got home; 20 years alter I resubmitted it and it came back a PSA 6. Nice work, Geoff.
Amazing episode!! Don’t you guys wish that older gentleman was your grandfather 🥲 not only would you inherit the most INSANE collection ever but you can tell he’s a different breed. They don’t make men like him anymore. There was a story where this guy gave up his seat on lifeboat during the sinking of the Titanic so more woman from the poorer class could get on board. Anyways he chugged a few bottles of alcohol and managed to swim in the freezing cold water absolutely wasted for two hours until the rescue boats came and saved him! He was the only person submerged in water that lived due to hypothermia and the alcohol keeping him warm. Men like Fogal have CHARACTER.
Thank you for this episode. So much history. When I came in the Hobby at a deeper level I never knew there was so much politics around it. Probably I'm naive I just didn't and still don't understand why people bash each other so much. I'm all for calling out the bad seeds to protect the integrity and remove the scammers I know it's needed. So episodes like these are what I love and feel grateful to have in today's Hobby. I make videos for myself because it's fun and I'm learning and I'm old and like to have a video journal of what I open 😂 I just buy what I like and can afford. You gentlemen taught me a lot thank you.. great show, Have fun in the Hobby!
