19th Century Only Auction Winners
Posted By: <b>Patrick McMenemy</b><p>Looks like I won my very first "auction house" auction this morning. I picked up my 6th Home Run Kisses catcher, Drummond Brown.<br /><br />I'm curious as to whether anyone else was lucky enough to win anything in the 19th Century Only Auction?<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1224930114.JPG"> <br /><br /><br />Patrick

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p><br />Nice card Patrick. Unfortunately this auction was just another where the ending time just kills the east coast folks. I made it to about 1 A.M. went to bed with four lots I was winning and woke up with only one, was hoping to have picked up one of the mid-grade D310's as well but it didn't happen. <br /><br />(Congrats to Seth however on some nice prices realized)<br /><br />My lone win-<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l111/asphaltman76/Old%20Misc/d311schmidtfront.jpg">

Posted By: <b>David McDonald</b><p>Auction ended at 10:30 pm Hawaii time and the advantage probably did work to my favor, although I had to duke it out with some sleepy mainlander for this classy Obak. Probably paid too much but I was powerless to resist. (Is there a 12 Step program for cardboard junkies?)<br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/bbbofsfirstclass/holygrailcards/websize/1911%20Obak%20Weaver.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/bbbofsfirstclass/holygrailcards/websize/1911%20D310%20Lewis.jpg"> <img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/bbbofsfirstclass/holygrailcards/websize/1914%20Zeenut%20McDonald.tiff.jpg"><br /><br />This was a terrific auction. Don't know when we'll see so much neat PCL stuff again.<br /><br />Off to bed.<br><br>Um. Wow. Vintage cards, scantily-clad Dutch people, uku-zillion penguins, authentic Polynesian maidens, surfing Obama and more at . .<br /><a href="http://ImageEvent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://ImageEvent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika</a><br />Password=aloha

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>As the others mentioned, a very rough time for the East Coasters. I went to bed at 2:00am but managed to hang on with my last bid to pick up one of the two Heilmann Zeenuts (the one without the corner chipped off). Been looking for a Heilmann RC or P-RC for five years now. I was also the underbidder on the Bancroft Zeenut & the other Heilmann Zeenut. Can't win'em all!!!<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s120/bcbgcbrcb/Heilmann.jpg">

Posted By: <b>jay wolt</b><p>How did the P.C Biscuits, Zeenuts & Obaks do overall?<br />There was certainly lots to choose from.<br />I won a couple of Obak lots & was curious if the other<br />lots drew strong prices.

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>I am absolutely ecstatic to have won this card! Roy Castleton was the first known Mormon in Major League Baseball. His story has been featured in SCD. For those Mormon collectors, I'm sure this a paramount card. A rare type in wonderful condition! This will be in my personal collection forever. My thanks to Yeakley Brothers for their research. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.19thcenturyonly.com/site/images_items/item_4650_1.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p><br />Jay-<br /><br />I can't speak for the Obaks or Zeenuts as I wasn't really paying attention to them, but I was surprised at how well the D310's did with that many for sale at once. I would have thought it could have been another E107 type syndrome where to many at once would have flooded the market and reduced prices..but that didn't really happen. It will be interesting to see now if one collector took in the majority of these and will store them away or if they were mostly bought with the result being we'll see these recycling now on ebay for the foreseeable future. <br /><br />Off to the game..til later.

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>By the way, I went to bed at midnight and am surprised my high bid was not even raised. However, there has to be a better way to end auctions. I know auctioneers are a bit freaked out by the 30 minute rule. However, I've seen first hand how wildly popular it is with collectors and I haven't heard of too much concern from consignors. There has to be a better way than the 15-minute-per-lot-will-last-into-eternity-so-hold-on-to-your-seat-or-stay-up-all-night-and-be-completely-ineffective-the-next-day--if-you-are-an-east-coaster model.

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>3 of the last group of 1911 Zeenuts I need fell to me last night. I thought 1911 Zeenut prices were very strong. Several lots which were comprised of "commons" went for well beyond what I had projected. <br />Thanks to Brian M. and Peter T. for helping keep me sane through all the rugged bidding on the Zs and also kudos to Seth for a well run auction with no "phantom" bids driving up your max late. It will be a long, long time before we see another pre-war PCL auction like this one.<br /><br /><center><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h233/trophybob/Item_4681_1.jpg" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><br><br /></center><br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h233/trophybob/Item_4666_1.jpg" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I got 2 lower end Z's with coupons I needed...Nice PCL auction from a new to the hobby collection. There is still a lot of stuff out there to be found, imo....I put in max bids and went and played HOlD'em with some friends. I got back at 1am and the auction was still going. I went to bed and still won my 2 little lots. Very happy. Good job Seth!!

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Major props to Seth on this auction. You very rarely see any of this stuff available in house auctions and Seth had such an awesome group put together that he was able to base an entire auction around it. Very well done and this was a terrific event for sure.<br /><br />I was luckily able to "ninja" a few cards away from the herd. I'm thrilled to add the Halla to my collection and the McCarl complements that well. I think I won 5 Zeenut lots in all.<br /><br />Pretty impressive prices on the Zeenuts. The steal may have been the z11 lot with Lewis in it. The d310s did pretty well I thought but I could have seen them go higher as nice as they were. The HRKs went lower than I figured but so many things went for really strong prices too. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1224947489.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1224947508.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1224947525.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1224947543.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>David McD, I was wondering who was bidding on that 1911 Obak Weaver at 3:30am EST. And here I thought I had a time advantage in auctions being on the West Coast.<br /><br /><img src="http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q82/boboinnes/1909Obaks.jpg"><br /><br />Also, picked up a couple 1910 150's. The "Just Right" is generally considered the scarcest back, but from my experience the "Mais Paper Wrapper" proved to be much tougher. Finally landed one.<br /><br /><img src="http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q82/boboinnes/150Backs.jpg">
