Default Annual worst auction writing sound-alike contest--It's fun!!

Posted By: Julie Vognar

anual Hemingway write-alike contest? That could keep me laughing all year...

I HATE to keep kicking myself in the butt, but the E.R. Williams game card of Anson and Ewing in the REA, and graded SGC 80, is, in the online auction, described as a "blazing example"..you should have heard Lifson talk about it at first, when it came back SGC 80...HaHaHa! (He didn't find it..very "blazing", actually!)

Since NOBODY bothers to write like that about a '77 Gamble, why not take something like a T206 Cobb red background, which is dirty, and has a bad corner, and the register is off (as it frequently is) so that he looks like he's praying?

Did Adam or Al mention the phrase "eye appeal"? A must...
