Eddie Collins Rookie Card
Until the last REA auction when Rob Lifson spoke otherwise, I always thought the Eddie Collins rookie was the T206 150 series portrait card. But Rob states that he/REA felt that his true rookie was the 1909 Philadelphia Caramel card of him and, of course, there was one of him in the auction, which really didn't attract a lot of attention. If Rob is right, there should have been some kind of upward value adjustment going on for the E95 card, which hasn't happened yet, I don't think. Any thoughts?
If I recall many years ago, a 2nd T206 Collins proof appeared, an action pose which never got issued and it was purchased by none other than Charlie Sheen (who else?). Anybody remember that?
