Goodwin Signed T206s
 

Surprised to see a whopping seven signed T206 cards. At least 5 of these originated from the 2007 Great Pittsburgh Find of Signed T206 Cards. I have these poses already, but I am really excited to see what they go for. Did these come from someone's collection on Net54?

EDITED TO ADD: Doyle, Snodgrass, Leifield & McBride are from the Pittsburgh Find; Jones was from the Jeff Morey Collection; Carrigan was a recent pickup on Cleensweep Auctions, and I'm not sure where the Livingston came from - but there are a lot of them, so a lot of sources are possible.

i thought they might be yours!

Ha! No... though I have owned at least four of them over the past 10 years. I'm still in a hold position. :D

I made like bids on 7 different cards..and within 5 minutes..my high bidder status was outbidded...amazing to get outbid so fast this early in the auction....they were not bids that would win the card at all but still amazingly fast to have all my bids outbid in 5 minutes or so....people must run to outbid people when they get the email that they are no longer the high bidder....i thought most wait till the end...or put a max bid in..

Sounds like what I heard them talk about in the American Greed episode the other night!

I think this is pretty standard. I generally get on auctions first day and make many early bids knowing I will be outbid, but giving me the option in extending bidding. With Goodwin, which I think has some great things, I bid on like 12+ items. Then, all day long, I get a string of outbid emails.....

I just got my catalog in the mail and had a question to those who are perhaps more familiar with the terminology of "duplicate lots". The catalog says they've pledged to not duplicate lots in their auction. Im guessing that means 2 different lots of the exact same card? Say for example a 1951 Bowman Mantle and 1952 Topps Mantle? :confused:

Funny. Could be several different answers. One is SGC and the other is PSA.
Or that their different grades.
In my opinion, it be hard to turn down a consignment of these 'premier' iconic cards. Basically your turning some good BP(buyer premium) $$ away.
btw, I got mine today as well.

I don't consider cards with such huge differences in grades to be the card. I'm not sure people in the market for a 52 Mantle 5 are also bidding like wild for one in a 1.5 grade. Can't say the same for Heritage which has 5 cards with the same grade in the same auction.

Goodwin & Co. has extended its Masterpieces & Uncommon Commons LXXII auction due to the tremendous damage and disruption of lives caused by Hurricane Irma in the last several days on top of the devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey just weeks ago. The auction will now close on Wednesday, Sept. 20. "It wouldn't be right to close this auction when so many of our faithful bidders are unable to participate,'' company president Bill Goodwin said. In addition to the extension, Goodwin & Co. has partnered with the American Red Cross to create several Irma/Harvey Relief lots as part of its November 2017 Auction. Collectors interested in donating lots to the Irma/Harvey relief fund may contact Goodwin at bill@goodwinandco.com.

Shocker!!!!

That is a really nice gesture re: helping victims but I would have preferred they partnered with local organizations instead.
