Padell was also the guy that was offered the old Red Sox stuff for $5,000, including a bunch of player contracts and the 1918 Ruth incentive contract that we discussed here. The seller re-nigged on his offer after being offered more by Barry Halper, for the Ruth incentive contract and another piece, but still sold Padell the rest of the Red Sox player contracts.
