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.
