Compose a letter to the eventual winner. Then rewrite it to really get it polished. A short letter. I would think you could contact the auction and they'd agree to forward your letter on to the eventual winner. I doubt that they'd give you the winner's name and address.

In the meantime, you might focus on saving funds to either outright buy any of the stamped cards the winner would sell, or funds for buying replacements for the eventual winner.


And I agree with Leon, some collectors still help fellow collectors. I mailed my "Howe McCormick" backstamped card to this guy....
