Signed T206 Wheat
The signature on this Wheat is identical in clarity and color to a pair of Wheats that Jeff Morey kept in his collection post-Mastro. They are currently in the hands of two of our Net54 folks. The Wheat in Heritage is basically the same card, though the condition is pretty strong. Even in that condition, to see that card with that signature sell for $3,000 is stunning to me. I was in on it up to about $1,500.
Given the $1,200 someone was willing to dole out for a signed T206 Marquard in Sterling earlier this year, and now this latest auction, it is obviously going to be a lot more challenging (expensive) to add pieces to my collection.
