I only made one bid while watching since day one, but knew the sale of the REA compared to this card would have mathematically bumped the incremental bid on top or over with the next bid. I was not totally surprised no one else bid give recent comps and probably not bid again (but knows)

I now have concluded my goal of finding an item from each of the 8, knowing this card was the centerpiece for me. The others are type 1 photos and a game 1 program.

Excited to see the card in person. Of course, I biased, but I like the centering this too, but would have been happy with either but that did not fit the plan.
I feel you got the stronger copy. The REA has scattered wrinkle through out yours only corner creases. Much stronger centering in your example.
Congrats.
