Post by BigGuy219 Thu Aug 08, 2013 7:23 pm

During the Full Count dinner on Saturday night, I was seated opposite Rich Klein, in a flashback to the 2010 dinner in Baltimore. We reconnected and I discussed his column that appears on Sports Collectors Daily, and mentioned that I had heard they were recruiting.

I had previously written articles for a modern card site, and Rich was kind enough to pass on my portfolio to another Rich, Rich Mueller who has brought me on board as a writer.

I'll try to submit at least one article a day, as I am rarely separated from my computer. My first article went up last night, and they should keep coming.

You should be able to find the first one, and all subsequent ones, via this link: http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com/author/chris-levy/

Thanks to Rich M for giving me the opportunity, Rich K for forwarding my work with endorsement, and I guess most importantly ... Lee for inviting Rich to dinner!

Chris,

Great seeing you on the show floor during !!!

Fantastic job with the article !!!

BTW - I had been talking to Rick K. during the National week & I mentioned to him that Lee, Jay, Pete, yourself, etc,... are having dinner at the German restaurant at 7 pm, but I had other plans and wasn't able to go, but told Rich K. to go (he originally said he was going to go to McDonalds that night Surprised )

Lee may or may not have invited him too - not sure, but I made sure he knew about it. I'm glad he went Very Happy

It was great having Rich there. There aren't that many people left in the hobby I can talk to that actually attended Willow Grove in 1982. We figured out that is where we first met.

We missed you at the dinner, Alan. But I totally understand choosing Brett Michaels (and his groupies) over us!
