SEABY ANA HONOR

Regarding the discussion of U.S. impressions of Seaby and Spink, Henry Bergos writes: "Sorry to be late, but it seems to be my middle name. Spink was the "patrician" company. They didn't welcome walk in traffic and were "less than hospitable". Seaby had a retail area and were always cordial. Mr. Seaby, Sr. came here for the ANA convention in 1976. He was honored at the banquet. It was HORRIBLE. He "wasn't young" and couldn't find his way to the front. All were embarrassed by this and didn't know what to do. Finally someone got up and lead him by the elbow to the front to get his award from Abe Kosoff. If I remember it right it was his 50 year membership award."
