Leland's or RMY winners?
The Jordan rookie debut photo was incredible... $142K, wow.
I won the Jordan 1984 Olympics warm up series ticket, and was the under-bidder on the 1919 Ruth sale promissory note, thought it was a great buy, so historical. Any other winners out there? |
I was shocked most of the Ruth items had 0 bids going into Sunday. I was a bidder on the note you lost and thought the other executed version I have a little remorse I did not go an extra bid.
I was the underbidder on the 1915 Ruth at the Underwood offices. Frankly, I missed the extended at midnight as I it took 1 bid to over take me. A year earlier that same image PSA slabbed went for $32k. |
That Jordan 1st photo was neat and went on for a while.

I struck out at Lelands. Shocked by how much the Jackie Robinson All-Stars Program went for. I do know one of the bidders who was going hard for it, and wonder whether it was largely a bidding war that resulted in the end price.
On RMY, I didn't win the higher end items I was going for. Was torn on the Satchel Paige tryout photo which would probably not have been a Type I for PSA, even as it fit RMY's classification of a 1 (a point they noted), but it was a beautiful image. I did win a really cool action shot of early integrator Roy Partlow. He played with Jackie in Montreal in 1946. I also grabbed a ncie WWII baseball image of Bob Feller. |

Holy crap on the Jordan photo. Not his pro-debut or anything, but guess I did ok on what I paid for this 10 or so years ago, + grading costs. :)

At Leland’s won the Jackie Robinson last regular season game ticket stub PSA 6. Highest graded. Price seemed low to me for highest graded 1/1 of such a cool historic stub.

Got my first Jackie Type 1 over at Lelands. Price seemed low to me given the action shot.
Nada at RMY but wasn't gunning for anything to hard at all. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...745d44fc43.jpg Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk |

A serious thumbs up for both RMY and Lelands. I like both of them a lot. Lelands has amazing memorabilia auction after auction. Particularly NY Yankees and Jackie stuff. RMY is the ultimate AH for amazing photos. Both great customer service, reasonable shipping. And, importantly, both are advertisers on Net 54.

Picked this up. Would love to find a photo of what it looked like before someone cut the auto off.
Thinking of framing it with a Gehrig type 1 Burke photo I already had. |

Won both these at Lelands, felt price was fair on both GPCs and checks 2 premium names off my needs list. Attachment 584618

Nice stuff, guys. I am so amazed at where photos have gone, and how far they still have to go.
The hardest part of it, and the biggest adjustment for me, is that photo collecting requires a lot more aesthetic care than a card. It isn't just condition but also the composition and significance of the photo that go into its value. A really striking photo can go absolutely crazy at auction, like this $4200 LOTG sale: https://photos.imageevent.com/exhibi...le%20Photo.jpg A nondescript photo, even with all the right stuff in terms of year and player and event, does fair to middling. |

Yeah, I love the photo too. Just sayin' (given the somewhat ordinary subject matter) that 2 bidders must have been ape-sh!t crazy over it to drive the price up that high!
