Default 1916 Indianapolis ABCS & the Rogan Panorama

The Rogan Panorama went nuts - I remember a cabinet of the same team sold in a Hunt auction about 10 years ago and went for a very high price the 20K range which I thought was crazy then.

I remember being offered a loving cup that was presented to Rogan as the MVP of some industrial league. The price was in the $5K range. This was over 15 years ago. I called Richard Merkin about it and he almost jump out of the phone telling me to go and buy it. I could never locate the dealer again. It was in Brimfield so trying to relocate anyone there was almost impossible anyway.

The ABC's piece was awesome but the image itself was only 5x7 and sold in the 10K range. I guess that maybe the best Ben Taylor piece known though.

Needless to say, those two pieces were great.
