I'm never going to spend 6 figures for a Goudey Gehrig 9 that's not qualified. Took a flyer on this one and can't wait to see it in person.
Since my bid didn't move for a week I guess others saw it very differently and might think I'm crazy. I'm over the moon I got it.

I was back and forth on that one. I saw it sitting at $7000 for a while and nearly pulled the trigger. I'm with you, the north south shift doesn't bother me as much. It's a gorgeous card! Congrats!
I picked up the M101-1 Young I'm hoping to display with my autographed First day HOF cachet of him and Lajoie. Now if I can find the M101-1 Lajoie! Also got the Type I photo of Robinson stealing home from the George Michael collection for my type I collection.
