Many of us, myself included, never got a chance to meet Landen Palatino.
But if you have been around the hobby, hopefully you’ve heard his story and his amazing friendship with Brady Kahle.
Landen passed away on Sunday, August 27 at the age of 9 from brain cancer. He was first diagnosed in early 2016.

But the interest in baseball cards would reach a fever pitch by 1988, which would mark the first year since 1981 that a new manufacturer would enter the fold.
