We are sad to report the passing of Dino Frisella on February 1st. As many entertainment card collectors know, Dino was founder of Dart Flipcards, which produced a wide variety of trading cards in the 1990's. He will be missed. <br>

We heard about this just a week or so ago. That's a real shame. Dino was a GREAT guy and an innovator in the hobby as well. We enjoyed speaking to him over the years and kept up with him a bit (sadly, though, not enough) after his Dart Flipcards days. We'll miss him as well.

Here's the Philly Show card he was featured on:

Always sad to hear another dynamo dealer has passed on. Their first Vietnam set was a real pioneer, featuring all original art!
