Default Crazy Zeenut Prices (Redux)

I know this topic has come up a few times over the years.

I was absolutely floored to see the results of the Huggins & Scott tabbed Zeenut examples.

Having been an active bidder, I was definitely surprised to see that both of these cards were among the last items to close the auction:

1917 Stan Dougan with Coupon sold for $960 (w/vig)
http://www.hugginsandscott.com/cgi-b...l?itemid=15970

1916 Ping Bodie with Coupon sold for $1920 (w/vig)
http://www.hugginsandscott.com/cgi-b...l?itemid=15969

Now, both were high grade, and certainly Zeenuts with tabs from the 1913-1922 timeframe are especially scarce.

However, as a frame of reference, this lot recently sold in REA for $1,320:

http://bid.robertedwardauctions.com/...e?itemid=44180

which contained tabbed Zeenuts from 1913 and 1914, as well as four other Zeenuts, including a high grade 1911.

Hardly anything amazes me anymore. I love the Zs with coupons although my current ones were very cheap and without them....
Strong prices on rarely seen cards. Congrats to the winners....and consignors...

Default Ping Bodie

Gosh... I dropped out of this 1915 Ping Bodie (from Brockelman) when it hit $500. Maybe I should have stayed in? The 1916 (no coupon) is mine, and maybe cost $100? The coupons are rare and cool, but...

I paid crazy money for this card. Only took me fifteen years to find one.

Kawika,

I was trying to see how Google Translate worked with Hawaiian. This is the way this conversation translated:


Adam: Nui kaleka (many incorrect)


Kawika: Mahalo. Ke olioli nei au e makemake ia. (Thank you. I am glad to be desired.)


Me: Aloha. He kā 'oe me ka hoʻohana Google Unuhi? A i 'ole e' oe e olelo aku i ka 'ōlelo? Au e olelo aku i ka 'ōlelo.


I typed in Google Translate “Hello. Do you guys use Google Translate? Or do you speak Hawaiian? I do not speak Hawaiian. “



David: Oe e olelo Hawaii? Maikai loa! Hea i kou wen' grad? (You say Hawaii? Sounds good! Where your wen 'Recipes?)

I have to say, it did not quite work right.

Ed: I lived in the islands for twenty years so have some acquaintance with the Hawaiian language. One rarely hears conversational Hawaiian around Honolulu but there is plenty of exposure to the language in many aspects of daily life. For starters the pidgin that locals speak is peppered with Hawaiian words; my work as a land surveyor required an ability to read original deeds and property descriptions; and my love of Hawaiian music stimulated an interest in deciphering lyrics. I even took a night school course in ka 'ōlelo at Kamehameha. So I am not entirely clueless although I still can't conduct a simple conversation. I read your comments and deduced (incorrectly it seems) that you did speak Hawaiian. The fact that you used na okina and na kahako threw me off because Google Hawaiian doesn't include those diacritical marks. [Google Hawaiian is the greatest thing ever on the internet although it really makes a hash of things]. Anyway, Adam told me "great card" and I replied "Thank you. Glad you liked it." I wasn't asking him for a date. To you I wrote "You speak Hawaiian? Awesome! Where did you graduate?" mixing Hawaiian and pidgin in a lame, make that very lame, attempt at humor. There you have it. What was this thread about again? Oh yeah, Zeenuts with coupons. Here's another kaleka nui.

Zeenuts with coupons attached seem to be few and far between. Just dont remember seeing them come up very often.

Just found these. Were bought in the 1980s at a show and stashed away only to see the light of day recently.

Only a handful graded with coupon by PSA
