Sorry Jim re-read your posts, so you knew this manufacturer made these and they ranged from $700-$1000 items, so your bid was $66......then u did your research after the auction to learn the baseball ones sold for more (while possibly being incorrectly dated) and then would have gone to $9000.
So if these go to auction labeled 1940's/1950's, you still believe it goes for well over $9000. It very well might, but might not.
I guess we'll have to see next time one goes to auction.
And no not jealous of the good buy by Bob, I too saw the item, did not know the value, but would not have gone to 2K so too rich for my blood, thus can't be jealous of something I wouldn't have gone for. Just like the guys who sell a Wagner that they bought for 20K for over 200K, too rich for my blood.
Now if it went for $66, then yes I'd be envious indeed.
