T206 Charles Bray Collection
 

I recently picked up this card off eBay and thought it was an interesting purchase given the pedigree designation on the slab. I've seen some older chatter about this collection but I was wondering if there was anywhere that people are compiling a list of cards that ultimately were part of the "Charles Bray Collection".

If not, I suppose we can start sharing them here.... Post if you've got one.

I have one.

Are they still doing this for PSA cards? Like the Charles Bray collection, etc? Or is this a thing of the past?

I don't get the excitement over Charles Bray cards. Who was he? His cards are very ordinary & usually in average condition and therefore seemingly nothing to chase after.

Very early dealer and auctioneer and friend of Jefferson Burdick.

I picked this one up and really appreciate the provenance.Attachment 587972

These pictures are great thanks for sharing. I think it's a pretty interesting collection myself. While they aren't in the most impressive condition, the provenance and his historical impact on the hobby is very cool.

I am humbled knowing that something went from his collection into mine. Brings you closer to the history of card collecting.

Thanks for that explanation.

One of the great early collectors and dealers...
