I've been trying to pick up a 1947 Dodgers team signed ball for some time. The Heritage auction had two of them one with 21 autographs (with all signed in then same color pen) and one with 29, but with some players signed in blue and some signed in black.
As Heritage often does, the auction ended Friday night. I am a Sabbath observer so I was not going to be able to bid on any items at the close, so I had to put in my bids early and wait until Sabbath ended to see what happened.
I was unsure which the market would view as more desirable. Not wanting to miss out on the auctions, I put in what I thought was a reasonable bid on both of them. Looked at my phone last night to find that I actually won both of them.
I'll probably wait until I get them in hand to decide which to keep and which to look at moving but happy to have filled a hole in my collection. It will go nicely next to the 1946 Montreal Royals signed baseball.
