Wheatland Auction Services is pleased to present the final Uncle Jimmy collection auction! We saved perhaps the best Babe Ruth signed Goudey card for last!!!
https://www.wheatlandauctionservices.com/catalog.aspx The stunning Ruth card went from $5 to $255k within the first 90 minutes of the auction!

Good luck bidding! Auction ends Sunday February 21.
Also, we enjoyed talking to Tom and JT on the Great American Collectibles Show this past week, where we talked about the rise in sports card values and the Uncle Jimmy collection:

Hi, I was listening to this week's show which was great. Did I hear correctly that the gross sales from this gentleman's fantastic collection totals around $3.5 million thus far?

Thanks. Yes - going into this auction his collection has already grossed over $3.5Mil. His family had no idea ... Uncle Jimmy is a legend! I think he is the al-time greatest through-the-mail autograph and card collector, having started his collection in the 1930s and continuing into 2020. We are very happy for the many families involved!
