Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>I was watching this auction because I'm looking for some obscure info on 1911 baseball. Well, old Roy was watching it too...here's how it all starts:<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5179924564&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5179924564&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1</a>

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>No real detetive work here. We've all known Huff actively buys these and then cuts them up. At $26, this should prove to be a gold mine for him and another book is destroyed in the name of greed instead of remaining in tact to be enjoyed and used the way it was originally intended.<br /><br />Jay<br><br>I've just reached Upper Lower Class. I am now officially a babe magnet for poor chicks.

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>There are probably a few people on the board who are not aware of Roy's buying handle, and who might want to add it to their blocked bidder list - it will at least keep him from buying our publications and cutting them up.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Darren, fair point. Huff is bad; those companies are much worse when it comes to the destruction of historical items.
