I was a little surprised to see the plain BG ESCO cards there too, but I think there is a risk of any card not named "Ruth" or "Gehrig" getting lost in the big book, so maybe not a bad strategy. I tend to ask for the Encore on most of my consignments--my stuff isn't big book caliber and I would rather it not get lost.
I think the prices were solid. At $1200 and $1080, respectively, the Sisler and the Speaker were the highest prices on PSA graded examples ever recorded. The Waner was a bargain at $600; I nearly bid on it but decided to stick to my focus right now (Ruth, Robinson and Pele) unless I find something for resale. I am guessing you bought it out of Heritage in 2018 for $840? Thing is, those variations are so tough that it is not really a predictable market; just need to throw it up and see where it lands. There hasn't been a recorded sale of a PSA graded Speaker since 2018 or a Sisler since 2020.
Howzabout you put up the Gehrig and give the market a real test?
