Anyone here win this from HUNT last night?
1909-1911 M101-2 Sporting News supplement Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner

I know one like this sold earlier this year around Feb in a auction house for nearly 1k..i place a bid of around 800..and left it at that..well it sold for 866
I was really hoping to catch a great pre-war piece of 2 players i enjoy to have.

My best pickup from Sterling last night, and for how tough it is, I was pretty happy with the price!

An absolute steal. I don't think you paid any premium for the back... that's a strong 40.

Are the 350 backs tough in general for HOFers or is Chance a toughie? My Cobb bat off is a 350. Maybe I lucked into something?

Sovereign 350s with the apple green backs are much tougher than their forest green Sov350 counterparts, but what makes this Chance Yellow portrait a little tougher is the fact it is 1 of the 6 superprints in the T206 set. I believe, however, that it is not as difficult as finding a super print with Sov 460 reverse.
