Ramblings: Recalling the Crazy Days of 1989

February 25, 2014 By Rich Klein

Last week, I wrote about the 1989 Fleer Billy Ripken obscenity card and some of the challenges store owners had at the time.   One aspect which I did not even think about was who honored what deals were previously made on the unopened product which all of sudden exploded in price when word got out about the ‘scandalous trading card’. On my Facebook page, Ken Goldin (then the … [Read more...]

Ramblings: Recalling Billy Ripken FF Card Mania

February 18, 2014 By Rich Klein

Ramblings: Remembering the ‘Unique’ Security at the 1984 NSCC Show… and Old Friends

August 7, 2013 By Rich Klein

While the theft issue may not have been as big as some other years, there were still some significant items stolen at this year’s National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago. Perhaps the most expensive card which walked away was a 1952 Topps Mantle in a PSA4 holder. Hearing about these always reminds me of one of my favorite old National stories. At the Parsippany, NJ … [Read more...]

Remembering Long Time Hobby Friends

November 20, 2012 By Rich Klein

by Rich Klein To me, one of the best aspects of the past two National Conventions in Baltimore has been the proximity to the New York Metropolitan area where I grew up. Baltimore is so reasonably close to New York that many of my friends from that era are able to make the Baltimore trip with ease. One of my friends is Karen Morris, sister of long-time dealer Brian Morris. … [Read more...]
