Acquiring large lot collections & their surprises....tell us of your's
My favorite large lot acquisition was back in 2006 from one of Barry Sloate's auctions. It consisted of 346 - T206's,
of which 262 were SOVEREIGN cards. It is quite rare that this many SOVEREIGN's are found in one lot of cards.
The amazing part of this collection was the 40+ HOFer's in it, including the following SOVEREIGN cards.......
Green Cobb
Both Johnson's
Speaker
Lajoie (portrait)
Tinker (portrait & batting)
Evers (portrait & both batting cards)
Chance [portrait (red & yellow)]
Bresnahan (portrait & batting)
etc., etc.
This gave me a huge "jump start" on putting together my all-SOVEREIGN set.
Thank you again, Barry.
