About the Author
After a 30-year career as a sports journalist for newspapers such as the Los Angeles Herald Examiner and the Orange County Register, Bill Froloff decided to turn his lifelong hobby of collecting baseball cards, autographs, and souvenirs into a full-time pursuit, and in June 2002, he opened his own business, 65 Mustang Sports, buying and selling sports memorabilia. Bill prides himself on being one of eBay’s "founding" sellers, buying and trading on the website long before it became newsworthy and fashionable. 65 Mustang Sports now sells to thousands of satisfied customers and hundreds of repeat buyers on eBay and is in their top 1 percent of sellers in the sports memorabilia category. Bill currently resides in Rancho Santa Margarita, California with his wife and three children.
