Jeff WilliamsBarry-Thanks, I look forward to the photocopy!
Jeff-It was JimB who had a post asking where he could buy the catalog. Somebody said Amazon and sure enough they had four or five copies. I bought one pretty quick and then checked back the next day and they were almost all gone.
Everybody- For those who were around and active in the hobby at the time of this auction, perhaps you could shed some light on it. Was this a truly defining moment in the hobby? Were the prices astronomical? It seems as though the entire auction catalog is an encyclopedia of rare cards. And, i still can't get over the fact that almost all of his cards were near mint to mint. I am not usually a condition sensitive collector (I don't think my collection has a card over ex condition, I perfer rarity over condition), however, Copeland's collection provides rarity with condition.
Any information about the auction is greatly appreciated!
