Thanks for coming over today Rich. This 50s, 60s and 70s stuff is a bit out of my wheelhouse but you nailed almost all of it right out of the chute. It does look like the 1964 Meadowgold Dairy cards are quite scarce. This particular collection, which is an old school collection with only one card graded (a '57 Topps Football # 1 LeBaron in PSA 8 NQ holder), has a bunch of stuff I have never seen before. It spans from some 1886 Jos, Wood photos, in quite rough shape, to later early 1980s junk...with most of it being 50s and 60s stuff. There is lots of strange non-sports with a lot of HOW cards in raw 4-6 condition. There is also a very low grade T206 Uzit Jennings with paper loss on the front and the back being clean. Should be a fun auction with lots of fresh to the hobby items from several old collections. Auction starts on the 25th and we hope to have a preview up a few days early but no guarantees.
