I was also after the Collins Portrait…believe it or not, as an upgrade 😁

Glad it went to a board member!

Congratulations!

Bill

Haven't worked on my T207 set in a bit. This is my first Anonymous Factory 3 and card #66 for me.

Won the PSA 3 1948 World Series Game 5 Satchel Paige debut ticket stub and the lot of 1932 and 1933 Red Sox Harry Stovey season passes.

Stovey is a tough autograph and both passes are signed which I am pretty certain is his signature although I had a hard time finding exemplars but he passed in 1937 and these signatures are pretty shaky and look close to the few exemplars I found.

Not home run items but pretty neat IMO for bargain prices.

Great pickups everyone. I picked up a number of WS tickets for my 1930-1980 run.

I picked up the 1949 Bowman Satchell Paige and the 1964 Topps Stand-Up Mickey Mantle.

The big ticket items I have left in each set. Still have a few dozen to go in each.

Probably went one bid higher than I originally intended to. (a familiar refrain)

Was a fun auction, always interesting to see what people gravitate towards. Happy with my additions. The Exhibits will be for sale, the Greenberg Diamond Star is my 20th of his that I have.

Great tickets Gary! I love the look of old time tickets.

Thanks, Bill ! I was priced out of a few of the others, but I am happy where I got this one- at least before tax, fees, shipping, paypal fee !!

Nice winnings shown by everyone so far!

Luckily, I was able to pick up a couple of cards for my White Sox type set.

The V.O. Hammon overprint PC will go nicely with the regular one that I already have:

And the 1929-30 red back Exhibit is a tougher upgrade to the plain one that I currently own:

I won these two Exhibit lots and don't want everything in them
 

Hi Gang:

I won these two Exhibit lots, and only want some of the items from each. So if anyone wants anything from either or both lots PM me

A W601 of the Cubs for me!

Thanks Andy. Tickets just seem like a real tangible connection to a game.

There were a lot of great items in the auction but I got priced out on most of them.

I woke up and learned I was the underbidder on the N173 Kelly.

Still devastated...

Your wins from LOTG auction last night/this morning?
 

Very happy to have the winning bid on this nice photo

Nothing as amazing as some of the pick ups posted so far, but I was pleasantly surprised that my bid held up on these American Nut & Chocolate group of 16 mini pennants.

Nice pick up Andy, especially love the St. Louis Browns pennant.

A Charles Conlon photo is a terrific add to your Lou Criger collection, Joe. Good on ya.

BTW, SGC, these 'black and white 1922 Eastern Exhibit' cards are not arcade cards. They are made of the wrong material to vend through the machines. They are postcards. Rare postcards at that, but not arcade cards.

"If it does not fit it is not an Exhibit"

Thank you! I agree

Nice! Congrats Joe. I was the underbidder (only the last bid), so apologies that I cost you a little money there, but I'm happy that it went to you!

Great wins all. Between recently closed REA and LOTG, and current Memory Lane and SCP, I'm amazed about how much great material has been made available recently.

Agreed and if you see the preview at some upcoming Heritage Auctions the cards keep coming.

Many have not seen in a while and others seems like they keep flipping every few auctions.
Regardless it has been an entertaining but costly time

Buyers have to sell some of the collection....to buy more!
Recycle & repeat process

Jay in many ways you are right

or sellers are taking profit and many buyers are buying less often to get the card/grade they used to or they are buying lesser grades than what they used to because of the new norm of elevated prices.

Most collectors I know are not selling their collection to buy more but slowing down their buying as the funds now vs 2 years ago is buying less.

Other than a couple of individual cards that Barry Sloate sold for me back in the day, I consigned, for the first time, a group of lots with Al in the realization that there are any number of sets that I will never complete and will use my $ to focus on those I can. I was very happy with the results given that many of the cards were ungraded.

100%

Continuing to evolve your collection is half the fun in my opinion.

Previews of upcoming? What about the auction that ends in a few days? Another person mentioned SCP's auction but it is nothing compared to the current HA auction, imo.
