The Collector World has loss one of the Good Guys, according to his wife Ruby (Pookie), Archie Cline passed away unexpectedly on Monday. Alot of us knew him back in the day when he and Ruby would set up at J&J AllStar Fishers Show, and continued as he moved on to doing his own shows in Plainfield and Martinsville. Ruby added on Facebook that funeral arrangements will be posted in a few days and the rest of his shows will be canceled as she will not continue running those. Prayers to Ruby and the Cline family.

UPDATE – Family and Friends are invited to visit on Saturday May 11th from 2-4 in the Chapel at Charlisle-Branson Funeral Service & Crematory in Mooresville.. A Life Celebration Service will follow starting at 4 at the Funeral home.

It was October 21st of 2017 when I got onto the Panini web site to enter my redemption code for a 2016-17 Panini Immaculate Patch Auto numbered to /40 of Indiana Pacers Myles Turner. Flash forward to eight years later and still no Turner card. Yes, if you check ebay there are other Panini Myles Turner sticker auto cards but not sure why the 2016-17 Immaculate card never happened. Fast forward to this week, a trip to the mail box and a replacement sitting there, a 2022-23 Panini Sparkle Pack of Donruss Optic Basketball. By the looks of things these packs are more valuable closed than open so now the question What to do?

Take the Poll…. https://x.com/DPMsportcards/status/1753304973402644612?s=20
