1916 Fleischmann Bakery D381 Ty Cobb (and many more) in Goodwin & Co current auction

[Leon]

I am gathering members thoughts (if anyone has any :)) on the large group of D381s in the current Goodwin & Co. auction? I think it's the largest grouping I have seen sold at one time (with coupons). There are some spectacular cards being offered. And I would be remiss if I didn't thank Goodwin & Co. for being a valued advertiser too. Good luck to all who are going for these seldom seen little treasures and any of the other great cards in their current auction.

I think they need a few more '52 Mantles too!!

Bill, excellent work as always. I think many type collectors will be happy after the auction as there seems to be enough for everyone. If there are a couple more "finds" then there will be a nice market on them to collect and possible build a set!

Thoughts?...Those Fleischmanns are spectacular, I really want the Joe Wood, and with 21 days remaining I'm pretty sure that dream of mine will be outbid in 2 or 3 of those days :)

Eh, never been a big fan. I can appreciate the rarity but they resemble cheap newspaper clippings to me.

All the best to Bill, Eric, and Bob to fill some holes. Even though I don't collect D381s, I share in some of the enthusiasm that follows a new find particularly when it helps advance the understanding of the set.

I've never been a fan of B/W sets, with the exception of D381s. I think the closeup shots are just fantastic and filled with personality.

One of my favorite sets, of course there's no Mickey Mantle so that's a downer.

Yes, we'll have to make due with the likes of Cobb, Wags, Matty, Johnson etc.....but alas, no Clemente either!!

I don't have a chance but cool to look at

Thanks Joe. Quite the find indeed. The Mathewson and Cobb are spectacular. My favorite set of all time!
