A
little
about
Andy....
Andy has
been a
fan of cartoons, comics and baseball cards since about the time he
could
walk.
His first pack of
baseball
cards were purchased at an Exxon gas station in East Ridge, TN back in
1983 and
he hasn't looked back. Now he sees baseball cards everyday of his life!
Andy
has been the Senior Vintage Card Grader for Beckett Grading Services
since
November 2004. In 2008, Andy had the honor of grading and
authenticating an
example of the most expensive baseball card in the world, a 1909 T206
Honus
Wagner. That same card sold for $317,000.00 in May of 2008.
His writing and
cartoons
can be found in the monthly Beckett
Media
publications and online.
He is a collector
all all
things Chattanooga Lookouts baseball and pre WWII baseball cards. Andy
also
collects comics and books on magazine cartoons and he collects original
comic
art.
His favorite
cartoons are
those found in magazines such as the New
Yorker
and Playboy. He once
took a 10+ year collection of Playboy
magazines and cut the cartoons out and threw the rest out! Some read it
for the
articles, Andy reads it for the cartoons!
He is a devout student of comic history and his original comic art
collection
goes back to 1822!
Some of his
favorite
cartoonists include: Lee Lorenz, B. Kliban, Sam Gross, Dan Piraro and
Jack
Davis just to name a few.
Andy lives north
of
Dallas, TX with his wife, 4 kids, a dog, two cats, some fish and Lord
knows
what else.
