Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-gzk9b-11d00e1 Rich and I talk about the re-birth of Fleer baseball (current player) cards back in 1981 (not a terrible start all things considered) and how Fleer handled the junk wax era before its eventual demise almost 25 years later.
Rich now works for COMC - which is an interesting option and venue for selling smaller more obscure sets card by card - we discuss our strategies - thanks Rich!
Grayson came all the way from Australia to the MINT Collective in Las Vegas - we sat down twice - this portion was recorded in the show area - please forgive the poor audio quality - and thanks Grayson.
I accumulated several questions from my German (Shaq collector) friend, Torsten Bauer, and rolled them into this interesting episode - put on your thinking caps - and thanks Torsten.
