One of the greatest guys around...always had time to sit with me and my family and chew the fat.....one of the Old Guard who "got" what collecting was all about unlike the legions of "never mind what it is ,what is it worth? " types we seem to get today. RIP Bill...you were one my favourite guys in the hobby.
