Most Wanted Prewar Cards That Haven't Appeared At Auction In A While
 

With the T206 Doyle variation finally appearing in this year's REA auction after not showing up for a while, what are the other popular cards that haven't appeared at auction in a while? T206 Wagner's and M101-4/5 Ruth's seem to appear in nearly every major auction. What are the ones that don't? For argument's sake, please have the total known pop of the card be at least 3, so that unique cards such as the Just So Cy Young aren't on the list.

For my part, I don't think the Baltimore News Ruth has appeared in a couple of years. I don't think I've seen a Buttercream Ruth for while either. I don't think I've ever seen a US Caramel Lindstrom although that card may be unique.

I would agree with the Baltimore News Ruth, not that I could afford one anyway but I would like to have one some day.......

Baltimore News Ruth
 

I think the next one that comes to auction could fetch $500K easily.

I think there are two copies of the Lindstrom US Caramel known to exist, but I'm also pretty sure that Fritsch owned both of them.

Been a long time since I`ve seen an E 107 Christy Mathewson come up for sale. Always been one of my favorite cards.

I haven't seen the Williamson Top Hat card come up in a while.

T207 Donlin

Anson in Uniform

How about 1909 Ramly Walter Johnson ?

I know Lipset offered one in 2001. Have any examples appeared since then?

no.

Ramly Johnson PSA 5 is in the upcoming Memory Lane Auction.


I agree the US Caramel Lidstrom. SCP had a PSA 3 a long time ago.

There a couple of these on eBay and a couple in the current REA Auction.

For some reason, the T214 Victory Tobaccos have long fascinated me. These aren't seen very often, and if I recall correctly, there aren't more than 3 of any of the subjects in the pop reports.

FYI, there is an SGC 40/3 currently in REA and a PSA 5 in Memory Lane.

The last Anson in Uniform that was auctioned off was that one in Lew's auction.

I haven't seen any T215 Pirate Cigarettes in awhile. A near set sold in 2007 but quiet in last few years.

Buttercream Ruth will be coming up soon.

N175 Comiskey one sold in B&L in February but before that it looks like one never sold anywhere. No population report data SGC or PSA. No listing in VCP. I perhaps should have bid on that one.:(

Silhouette BG Exhibit PC Backs. I haven't been able to knock any off my want list in years.

T208 Eddie Plank

E94 Violet Cobb/Wagner

I just got a violet e94 Cobb from Lew Lipset but it is trimmed. Nonetheless, love the card!!

Trimmed Cards can be Very Cool!
Especially this one of Cobb... If you have time, can you post a scan of it?
Love to see it!

Boston Garter Matty!

There's one in Heritage right now and I feel like there was one in mile high in the previous year.

Here you go Denny.

Tbob, see lot #431 in the current REA auction. While it is currently too rich for me at this time, that is the lot I would love to win.
