I wonder if the winner of the auction realizes the significance of the baseball photos in this album? Looking at their feedback they do not bid on anything baseball related, but they do bid on a lot of historical items and photo albums.
This was one of those items that as soon as I saw it I knew it was going to go out of my league if certain other ebayers noticed it and I know at least one of the underbidders here was one I was fearing. This had no bids until about 4 or 5 this afternoon and I thought maybe I had a shot at it. For the record I did ask the seller if they would consider a BIN and they declined.
Oh yeah for those that don't know the significance of the photos they are photos of the first game that Shoeless Joe Jackson played for Savannah in the Sally League in 1909. Not sure you could identify him in any of the photos, but that guy in centerfield sure is playing shallow....
