Again, all just my opinion. It's all relative of course, money could be meaningless to the winner. But to me, that price is dumb.

The very same characteristics that make the '14 Baltimore New Ruth significant. My best recollection is that that one came out of the gate in a 1989 auction at $6,000.
Wish you all the best, Jeff. Your posts are some of the most knowledgeable on the board, and I always enjoy reading them. Perhaps we can meet at the National some time,
