Default Brockelman Auction contest w/vintage card prizes for best guess + great guesser bonus

It's time again to guess what I consigned to the upcoming Brockelman Auction that ends this Saturday.

The auction: http://www.brockelmanauctions.com/catalog.aspx

This time your guess will involve nailing which 7 of the below auction lots with (currently) no bids that I consigned to the auction. Your guess will consist of 7 lot numbers, and you can guess a total of two times with no editing, and the cutoff time will be 6pm EST Saturday October 6th, which is the final day of the auction.

If you are the first to guess all 7 correctly, you will have your choice of 4 of the cards shown below. If no one guesses all 7, the one that guesses the most correct can choose 2 of the cards (in case of tie the person who guessed first would be the winner). I reserve the right to offer nonsensical hints.

The lot #'s to choose from are:

8
18

Hmmm... he said "nonsensical hints". Maybe all his lots have the number 4 in them.

Placing the contest ending date as being the 4th was just me being a nonsensical person, not a nonsensical hinter. I swear I almost understand the difference.

The ending is of course on Saturday October 6th.

This is not as nonsensical as I would like it to be, but it will have to do for now.

There are currently two guessers that have two or more correct. All the rest have guessed zero correctly.

Default Contest closing at 6pm EST

Just a reminder this contest is closing at 6pm EST, which is 3pm PST, and the rest of the country just has to figure out the closing time in their time zone...I'm tired of doing all this mind-bending math.

As a reminder, you can make two separate guesses (with no edits).

A final hint, though I do reserve the right to enter one final squeaker at some point. The top guesser so far has 3 correct, and that person has only three letters in their first name (as identified in their post).

Good Luck!

Brian

Thanks for doing this, Bryan. My winning is proof that even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while.

I'll take the Coffman and Bridges cards if you will. I'll send my info in a PM shortly.
