Over the years, I've saved some impressive/special catalogs. Not many rival this one from 1999. This type of material was more common to see back then, but man, this was one insane auction...I know that a lot of those T206 cards were bought by the top few registry guys, and are in their "vaults" now.
It's just wild to see this caliber of stuff all in one auction; and shared lots on ONE page (AND many of these were towards the back of the catalog, wow)...if any of this material were offered today, these pieces would garner their own pages, and be #1 lots. Wild stuff indeed.
(Not intending this to become a negative/controversial thread about Mastro's, just thought collectors would appreciate seeing the cards, if they haven't before).
