Default Get Anything New? - July Stuff

Posted By: Julie

I got exactly what I wanted. And if you will look, you'll see they weren't cheap, either! I think the planes went for opening bid.

The highest priced thing in the auction was a Jackie Robinson from the Doders' barnstorming tour in '56. Well over 3K. I have a Jackie 3 feet off the ground, and I also have a Japanese Jackie (with "Chico Barbon" on it in Japanese)--and besides, I didn't have that much dough!

The Robinson I have, and a Tachibana Doby, and a Ruth phone card are the only Americans in Japan I've ever been interested in...though the two photos of Cobb in that auction were excellent ones. Congrats!
