It seems to me that higher-end prewar (player, rarity, set) is doing well given last night’s results. Plus, REA is a top-flight AH, so I would expect nothing less.

I was fortunate to out last the under bidder on that W601 Postcard in the wee hours of the night. W600s and W601s are extremely rare and having the postmark and stamp on the back in my eyes makes it more desirable even though having a blank back in higher grade on it, would most likely fetch more money. Good analogy Ryan on the 1915 Ruth card. I was thinking the 1925 Gehrig exhibit 10 years ago when they could be had in the 5-10k range and now they are 6 figures in most cases.
