FRESH COLLECTION OF CENTURY-OLD CARDS AT AUCTION
Wheatland Auction Services is offering hundreds of T205, T206 and T207 cards from an elderly man’s estate as part of its newly-launched Winter Auction.
Cobb. Mathewson. Johnson. McGraw. Name any player from the tobacco card era and there’s a decent chance his baseball card was quietly sitting in a virtually unknown collection of tobacco cards inside a Pennsylvania home.
Now, this long running but fresh-to-the-hobby collection consisting of hundreds of pre-War gems, is on the auction block.
