That's good to hear.

If the item had been bound nicely I wouldn't have minded paying an additional $175-$200 in auction, so while I wouldn't mind finding it cheaper, I'd be ok if this is what it cost.

Thanks! It should paid nicely with my 1937 signed yearbook. It's part of my collection focused on integration. Some people don't realize that in college (and high-school) Jackie played on integrated teams. Then he was in the War, and finally graduated to segregated sports in 1945 with the KC Monarchs...
