Rob D.Leon,
I think you and Scott should do what you think is best in regards to your auctions. I appreciate the fact that you gather input from board members before making changes to this forum, but your auction company is yours and Scott's, and in the end you guys will benefit -- or not benefit -- from your decisions.
Such an item is truly a historical piece, and though I suppose the same could be said of a piece of wreckage from Munson's or Clemente's plane, I see a huge difference and don't think a comparison works.
And from a purely business standpoint, I think it's been proved time and time again that collectors might be offended by something for a short time, but in the end, most of them forget about that "outrage" when a seller offers a "gotta have it" item and continue to remain customers.
