I know DuMouchelles well...in 1991, they had the greatest rare baseball book collection this hobby has ever seen, and they didn't have a clue what anything was. They had books worth $5000 that had estimates of $50. But everyone found out about it and the auction has become part of hobby folklore. Nobody has a clue why that fabulous collection was consigned to them; they didn't even know how to write up the lots, other than to pretty much just list the title. It was amazing.
