I'm saddened to report that we lost a hobby legend, a Hall of Famer. John Graham, passed peacefully on Friday due to his pulmonary fibrosis according to his wife Vicki.

John was the Texas gentlemen and all-around good guy. Everyone respected John because of the way he dealt with them, and he did a lot of deals to put together one of the largest high-end collections ever assembled.

We got together most every time he traveled out West to SoCal and the one time I went to “The Big D” (Dallas) as he called it, to see his collection in all its glory before he wrote his book. I always looked forward to seeing him. We did so many deals together and I will miss him, especially his calm, gentlemanly southern or Texas drawl.

If you have a nice memory of John, please post it here. I don’t know where to begin.

Sorry to hear of his passing . I did a few deals with him over the years . He’ll be missed .

Sorry to hear this news. John was a giant in the hobby and always friendly to deal with. I had fun spending time with him at the first National I set up at and hosting him at my home a few times on his trips to New England.
