Default My take on Michael O'Keeffe's book, "The Card"

Posted By: MikeU

"I think you have something a bit confused. PSA was not a buyer of cards from Hughes or anybody else."

Exert from Dan Markel's link:

"Condition Census for 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle Gem Mint 10.

Fogel-Murphy Specimen. The card came from the fabulous 1952 Topps collection of Mark Murphy. It was then sold by dealer Bill Hughes to Collectors Universe CEO David Hall for $50,000 in 1993. When Hall's collection was auctioned by Superior in 1996, renowned collector Marshall Fogel purchased the card for $121,000."
