Default Barry Sloate Auctions Begins March 8
Posted By: barrysloate

I'm running a bit ahead of schedule, so my current vintage card auction is now live at www.sloateauction.com. Bidding will begin Thursday, March 8 at 10:00 AM. I have a nice selection of highlight pieces, as well as more affordable ones, too. And I would be remiss if I didn't thank two board members who were an important part of the team:

Brian McQueen put in a good deal of time to secure some of the better pieces in the auction, and his friendship and support are invaluable.

And Joe DiSomma, who runs a family printing business in lower Manhattan, printed the catalog for the first time, and it looks just great. It was a first rate job all the way, and he even hand delivered them yesterday to my door.

Hope everyone finds something of interest in the sale. If there are any questions please email me at bsloate@att.net or call at 718-855-7513. Also feel free to post on this thread. Sincerely, Barry Sloate

Hi Brian- I read the NY Times too, so that would get you VIP treatment. Don't know why you can't access. Try clicking the link on Net54. I am able to access it.

No problem with the site here.

Barry, I see you're down the street from the old courthouse. My wife and I fell in love with downtown Bklyn when we stayed at that new Marriott a few weeks ago. 8*F one morning, I dragged the missus across B Bridge. Returned, then had the best pizza in years at Monty's on Montague.

I've stayed in Manhattan dozens of times, but never been to Bklyn. We are actually considering retirement there now, but I'd have to learn the language(s). The area my son lives (McCarren Pk), isn't residential but old industrial. Incidentally, your city reminds me more of my old Dorchester than Brookline.

Max, Terrific Bklyn Pub Library link! I'd love to find the Boston Globe archives. Beats reading the paper with those big wooden sticks down the center... But hey, you can save a quarter.

Back on topic -I want item 12

Steve- the Marriott is six blocks from my apartment. That's my neighborhood. Best place in the world to live, but it's not getting any cheaper.

Good stuff Barry. Much of it would fit nicely in my collection. More importantly, my brother in law lived in Brooklyn for many years and he used to take us to a brick-oven Pizza joint under the Brooklyn Bridge. I remember it being a bit touristy but the pizza was some of the best I ever had. Does this place ring a bell?

Absolutely- we do take out from there often. It was called Patsy's, but they had to change the name for some odd legal reason. I think the new name is Grimaldi's. Nice thin crust, fresh mozzarella! (I'm hijacking my own thread )

Really weird--I still cannot log on by clicking that link, using multiple browsers/computers. I will wait for the mailing, assuming I can still get regular mail. Thanks.

What are the chances of your computer not working and your mailman going on strike at exactly the same time?

Jerry: Newman, what do you do for a living?
Newman: I'm a postal worker.
George: Aren't they the ones who go crazy and start shooting everyone?
Newman: Sometimes.

I like this exhange (paraphrased).

Jerry: Did you quit your job?
Newman: Sort of.
Jerry: What do you mean "sort of"?
Newman: I'm still getting the paycheck, I just stopped delivering the mail.

It wouldn't be a Barry Sloate thread without a Seinfeld reference.

George: You know, Mr. Morgan, you kinda look like Sugar Ray Leonard.
Mr. Morgan: We all look the same, eh Costanza?

George brings the exterminator to prove to Mr. Morgan he is politically correct: "Jerry a funny white guy...I guess he is, I don't really look at people in terms of color."

A repeating theme in the show: When in doubt, just lie!

My one trip to Totonno's was disappointing. I have heard that Grimaldi's has the best pizza on the planet. I must go there when I pick up my winnings from Barry (yeah, right).
Well, if I cannot win in one of Barry's auctions, at least I can console myself with NY pizza. Life's not all bad.

Where are the punk or classic rock references in this thread?

Where are the books and publications in the auction?

The rest of your stuff is great as usual Barry.

Max- you raise a subject close to my heart that I too am disappointed with: the lack of interest in baseball books. I always would have a good selection of rare books in my auctions, but the market for them is very weak. Have people stopped reading?

Nice stuff; mostly far out of my league.

BTW, my envelope had a big black tire track across the back; I guess the mailman ran over the sucker before he delivered it.
