I'd guess 9, but I rarely get there before 10 anyways. Love the pickups here! I recently added a '57 Klu to my collection (what a terrific card) and I need to pick up a copy of that Kell. There aren't many cards of him as an Oriole. Looking forward to seeing more of the haul!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709402326341729642.post-9176446806625175612018-03-10T19:28:08.472-08:002018-03-10T19:28:08.472-08:00I only go to card shows based on when a guest I...I only go to card shows based on when a guest I'm interested in appears.
