1915 CJ Erskine Mayer
 

Hi all,

I saw this card in PSA 5 went for over $3000 in the last REA auction. Is this a tougher or more popular card among the commons there? Seems to go for a premium ( maybe because a Jewish player?). Deans has one in psa 4 for $3900. But that’s Deans. I own one (raw still) and never thought it was particularly valuable beyond the usual CJ popularity.

My understanding is that Mayer is highly sought by those who collect Jewish players - he must be among the earliest.

Beautiful card and condition. Thanks for sharing Paul. Definitely a HOF price for a non-HOF'er.

My guess is that it is definitely Erskine Mayer specific as we got over $1100 for an M101-4 in SGC 3 of Mayer in the Spring. It was a Block & Kuhl back, but that still way over what other Block & Kuhl's got in the same auction.

We actually had the CJ Mayer in the same auction, got about $950 for an SGC 2.5
