A couple of comments by Fred were great. One was a comment from a major buyer telling Fred to remember two words, which were “thinly traded.” Another was a comment from a dealer that told Fred that “All the money is in the top ten percent.” Also, the discussion of reproductions from China in crates at Brimfield was interesting to me.
