Frank WakefieldI don't know about SCP...
I do know that Mr. Goodwin will take a nice item, will cart it around to a few shows and show potential buyers, get them interested... he'll contact collectors he knows that might be interested in a particular item... and then when the bidding starts he may well have 3 or 4 folks with serious interest.
As for the 2 Lajoie cards, either would suit me just fine. At first glance, the 5 looks better. The 4 has better centering. Both are nice. I think if the cards were virtually identical, 4's or 5's, that Mr. Goodwin would excel at getting a higher price than many folks.
From what I read above, there was no libel of anyone up there, but rather praise for Mr. Goodwin's marketing skills. I think the Goudey Lajoie he has up will go for even more!
