7am - Goodwin still going

[Blunder19]

Thanks Leon.

Did you buy your mullaney off ebay? I thought I remember you did.

ebay is one of the worst places to sell. And one of the best places to buy. If the mullaney was sold in goodwin would bring in way more. Also the fact that errors continue to sky rocket each year. With your card being in your collection for a few years it has appreciated for sure

Yes, and there was quite the controversy surrounding auction specifics when it was sold. If anyone wants to rehash old stuff the link below is where the 30+ yr owner of the Mullaney listed it on ebay, followed by him posting it on our board, around 8 yrs ago. (his first thread on it)

Hi Jamie, congrats on the card. it just doesn't do it for me, but that's why they make many flavors of ice cream- to each his own. with that said, very happy for you.

$11K for printers waste is the cartophilic version of Tulipmania in my mind

Supply and demand, no? It's all good.

[oldjudge]

Peter--yes....but what are you really talking about when you say supply and demand. It's not just the absolute number of buyers and sellers. It is also a function of the aggressiveness of the buyers and sellers. Buyer aggressiveness can moderate quickly when bubbles burst. Supply and demand caused Tulipmania too.

I must be missing some bit of pop culture knowledge. What is Tulipmania?

Congrats on a HUGE pick up!

No one even realizes what you've won!

The market is still quite young on these.....most collectors don't even understand them....

I was offered 15 K on bender a few years ago and turned it down....

Leons multi strike is a multi K card...

Very few even understand these cards...



Merritt/ Crawford was a lmost mine last year....literally almost cried when I lost it....


It is a very rare scrap......The color of Crawford overprinted on Merritt ....look at the "eyes" piercing thru on Merritts fore head...


1000% scrap.....


rare backs were going cheaper a few years ago also!! I could get a drum for under 1 k no problem/ bl 350's at $100.00.....ect ect...


the scraps have followed suit with rare backs ....

altho they are 1000 X rarer than some


hmmmmmmmmmmmmm....


I have only seen 2 HOFER ghost front images the last 15 years!!!!

you own the other Jamie
(just guestimates)

50 wagners

175 plank

350 Magies

14 brown oms

100 bl 460s

2 hofer ghost overprint front printers scrap


I dare someone to show ANOTHER....id love to see....





you could name your price on that card one day.....when collectors of the set realize really what they are....

they are not even "T206".....the are "fantasy" T206.....

alternative......

not the production card....a tool used to set the presses up.....and inadvertently "created" some very weird/cool/ different/ unique "eerie" cards accidentally! JUST AMZING....


these single examples would be centerpieces in any collections...
