The Legends of "Buster"Charles "Pecan" Thompson, one of the great Chicago Pool players, started a series of remembrances of the America's best known player, Carl "Buster" Smith, who for half a century ruled the land on both Pool and International Checkers boards. This is not a complete story yet - as people remember Charles is going to put the memory down. He emails them to a list of checkers players, hoping to spark their memories as well. It is with his permission we record these memories for posterity here....
Friends this was the last in a series of my remembrances- The Legends of "Buster," I only hope that you have enjoyed reading them as much as I have enjoyed sharing them with you. Thanks again for your interest and attention. "Pecan"
