I thought the e107's went pretty cheap. Think the flood of them on the market right now didn't help. Got this one, wished I pulled the trigger on a few more.

Attachment 89801

nice pete...is that the one with the overprint on back?

Dang. I guess any item that fits in a holder is fair game these days.

Nice pickups everyone!

Nice card Pete !!

Pete-

Nope, unfortunately. That would have been nice. Can't wait to see what the next Legendary auction brings with the collection!

Very special Johnson piece, Packs--congrats! I got some great stuff, including Walter's autographed 50th birthday menu "scorecard" and the scored program from his 110th and final shutout game, one of the few records that is guaranteed to never be broken, plus some terrific Senators pieces. What a smorgasbord for Washington collectors this was, from the Kent Feddeman collection. Don't know about the cards, but I thought this was a real buyer's auction on the memorabilia side, lots of "bargains" to be had.

Same thinking here - it has no advertising on either the front or the back, so doubtful it's a cdv, or a card.

Very special in my opinion. I wanted it, but dropped out in the extended bidding to go after other things. Last night was kind of frustrating - lots of stuff I wanted, but having the 30-minute rule end at the same time for all of them meant I had to drop out on several things. Then ended up with 2/3 of my budget left :(

Only picked up one item, but I really like it:

I tried to register for last night's session, about 10 hours before extended bidding. Never received the confirmation email, and couldn't bid!! Sux, as I might have made a real play for the 1877 J. Wood Red Stockings cabinet. When was the deadline for registering?

Added another from my favorite oddball set...the 1913 Cravats pennants.

I used to own this, had it framed this way. Only Washington example I've ever seen. Are your other Cravats one of a kind?

I have seen two of Bedient, Dooin, Mathewson, and Speaker. Otherwise, only one of Ainsmith, Archer, Bender, Caldwell, Coombs, Doyle, Konetchy, Lavender, McGraw, Sweeney, Thomas, Tinker, and Walsh. I haven't seen Baker, McInnis, Meyers, Rucker, or Tesreau yet...and there are likely more that remain uncataloged.

Most that I have seen are in poor condition and show stitch marks. Tik and Tik had a large lot of them 15+ years ago that came from the same source. I am guessing that is where this Ainsmith originally came from as well. Somebody must have stitched several together. Funny that most of the surviving Cravats came from a homemade banner.

Scott, that card is really nice. I was looking at it extensively. E107's are outside of my realm, so I didn't participate, especially after my most recent pickup. But that is a nice looking card. You got a good one.

Cheers.

Thanks Cy. I have no real idea as to value on these, so just went after a few with nice images. I'm curious what other E107 winners (at the low end, with me) think of the prices last night.

Low! Except for the Fielder Jones card.

I'm a bit surprised no one bought the complete set when it was offered... Maybe the price was unreasonable? With judgement based on last nights prices alone, it seems there won't be a whale going after the whole set. There are still quite a bit left to sell, does anyone know if the rest will be auctioned the same way?

I was watching the Fultz like a hawk but didn't go for it. Came out 200 cheaper than I expected

I ended up winning the PM1 Ornate Pin for Ruth. I am almost positive it is authentic. I found that the Bressler PM1 pin does exist since it was sold in an older Legendary auction. However, I still have a grain of doubt. Any PM1 pin experts out there who think they can tell if the inside photo was replaced?

E107s
 

I thought prices were overall soft on the commons. A few went below what I expected and a few went above what I expected. HOF'ers held their own I thought. The Wags, who knows? I don't know what to think about that one?

I wonder if any whales were feeding on some of the commons last night?

I thought that prices on day 2 overall were a little stronger than day one. I would consider day 2 prices to be as expected where I would say day 1 was below expectations, at least from my BB HOF rookies perspective.

+1


Phil - did you win anything? Who won the Tim Keefe Cabinet?

Nope, I'm broke, could not even place a bid during the extended bidding session. I think the Keefe went for a fair price not too crazy but not cheap at all either. Same with the 1877 Cincinnati card given the condition. I think that the Harry/Sam Wright CDV was the best bargain of the whole auction, wish I had some money to go after that one.......

The 1870 Boston Athletics CDV went for a nice price but I think the hauls of shame article had something to do with it.

those e107s went cheap, most all of 'em if you ask me...the rest will be sold over the next 5-6 auctions in the next couple of years - Im wondering if this will kill the e107 prices overall as some of these "highest graded" went for psa 1 prices. Id love to score a HOFer before its all over.

That's what I was thinking - never thought I could get a 'best condition' example for $1200. I'm not a type collector, but thought I'd be ready in case I changed my mind.

It could be rough for E107's the next couple of years, but gradually supply will dry up and then they will be off again once more. I think we're seeing a similar dynamic with the OJ's from the Dreier Collection.

Got the SGC 40 Old Judge Anson and the PSA 8 (o/c) Old Judge Welch. Not the G&B O'Rourke that I stupidly bailed out on at $4500, but OK cards.

Kenny, that Welch was superb.

Scott,

The photo was nice :-0

Kenny, I'm in 'sell' mode, but these last two nights were not to be passed up - a LOT of bargains. I elected to totally ignore the photos and concentrate on E107s, but the Welch was high on my radar. It was slightly different from the VCP pic, but that not withstanding, it was a very nice photograph. People forget that Old Judges are legitimate albumen photos - you can forget about the card and look at image clarity, and this one was extra nice.

Although, his defensive 'crossed arms' pose was kind of a turn-off. JK

I wanna see who goes for the violin

thanks, but I'll just have Candy and Ice Cream .........." you keep throwing that curveball and you'll snap your wrist off"

I liked the Welsh, how can you argue with $1500 for a high grade Welch with a decent image? Even if you didn't get the O'Rourke, at least you stayed true to your OJ HOF focus. Congrats.

A few Wins
 

I picked up a couple odd ball pieces and a Dick Perez Painting.

Legendary Lot #172 - Five R304s of Wash. Senators
 

If a Board member won this lot of five 1934 Al Demaree Wash. Senators die cuts and is not interested in keeping the Ossie Bluege card, I'm your buyer (or will trade for it).

:eek:

Scott youre sick!

Very nice, that's the T206 proof pose....hadn't seen one before.

Wha...? Who...? Do you not like my emoticon?!?!

I'm sorry - after my T206 post a moment ago, it probably looked like I was picking on you, so I came back here to make up.

The Collins silk reminds me of his 'batting' proof for the T206 set. Too bad they didn't go forward with that card :(

Scott- That was the card I chased, I really liked it but gave up at the end because I don't collect E107s. Congrats!

If the winner of the Legendary lot of 30 sepia HOF postcards would be willing to part with the Chadwick, I would be willing to pay $100 for it. My e-mail address is: vguerrerobb@yahoo.com
