Mastro + Legendary Archives

[perezfan]

Does anyone know how to access the concluded auctions from Mastro and Legendary? Their website is dead.

Say what you want about the defunct AH, but there were thousands of useful exemplars and endless options for research and reference. I heard Goldin bought Legendary's "rights", but their site only seems to have past auction lots under the "Goldin" Banner. I don't see any place to reference Mastro or Legendary on Goldin's website.

Can anyone please advise?

Hi-
I do not have all of the details, but from reading the card side it appears that the owner of the auction software kept the website online without payment until the court cases had finished. It is now offline because no one is paying to continue hosting the information. I believe another auction bought Legendary's mailing list, but did not purchase the website archives of past auctions. I personally miss the information, and would consider making a small contribution if there was a way to keep the information online.

Much of the old Mastro/Legendary information has been captured by Gary Cypress in his Prices Realized web site, but to go back past 18 months requires a subscription. Short of that, you are left to probably having to work from old auction catalogs.
