1933 Goudey Sports Kings Premiums. / why did I toss out all those old auction catalog

[bigfanNY]

About a week ago I was cleaning up my hobby room and in a group of old price guides I saw this an old Auction Catalog from Christies 1991. I thumbed through it and saw an Obeck T212 Album. Well up until that moment I would have said there is no album for T212. I posted in under Leons please post your BST in right catagory / PCL cards thread. But I think I will post in this thread as well.
A couple days ago I go through the album page by page and I am blown away by some if the items. The first is the item listed in the thread. An R-340. You can see the image below. And it brings up some questions. To my eyes the premium is a drawing not a photo. The Ruth and the boxing examples are photo's. Anyway it is about as rare a card as exists in our hobby and I am happy to have found a picture and share it.
Now the second part of my post. About 6 years ago I tossed out a large group of lipsit Mastro etc. Auction catalogs. I realize now that was a mistake. I tossed out a great trove of Hobby referance material.
