I also got these cards, a 1977 and 1978 Topps signed. I also had him sign a 1980 Topps, but I realized I already had one signed by him, so that one will go in my trade bait pile. One of these days, I'll make a list of the cards I have extras of and may be able to pull off some trades.
Bahnsen was nice, even though he was questioning whether or not my wife really did approve of all the cards I have in my collection. If he knew about the signed movie memorabilia she had; or her signed hockey stuff, maybe he would have understood a little better about the dynamic of our relationship. It was funny, though, and I definitely didn't take offense. That being said, I tried to have conversations with every signer that I met at the National, and all of the conversations were great. I didn't meet a single signer at the show who didn't seem to want to be there.

He did a local show to me a few years ago and was quite nice. Because it was a New York-area show he inscribed everything with "68 ROY NYY"...a little odd for me since I had him sign an Expos card, but that gives it a bit of character.
