Posted By: <b>Judge Dred</b><p>Wow, what's up with these 1914 CJs? I realize the distribution was only via the product packaging. Any opinions what Mordecai Brown and other HOFers would realize at auction?

Posted By: <b>John Spencer</b><p>This '14 Matty looks to be the same one that sold a few months back in one of Lew Lipset's auction. I recall that small missing chunk on the bottom right. If memory serves, it went for over $17,000 plus the vig. At around $11,000 current with 1 day to go the seller may be in for a disappointment.

Posted By: <b>Mike</b><p>Actually, it's not the same card. The Matty in the Lipset auction was much nicer, even with the bottom corner missing. The picture was a lot clearer and the card was much cleaner. It also went for over $19,000.
