Default T206 Charles Bray Collection

I recently picked up this card off eBay and thought it was an interesting purchase given the pedigree designation on the slab. I've seen some older chatter about this collection but I was wondering if there was anywhere that people are compiling a list of cards that ultimately were part of the "Charles Bray Collection".

If not, I suppose we can start sharing them here.... Post if you've got one.

My T206 Chase Blue Background has a Charles Bray pedigree.

Are they still doing this for PSA cards? Like the Charles Bray collection, etc? Or is this a thing of the past?

I don't get the excitement over Charles Bray cards. Who was he? His cards are very ordinary & usually in average condition and therefore seemingly nothing to chase after.

These pictures are great thanks for sharing. I think it's a pretty interesting collection myself. While they aren't in the most impressive condition, the provenance and his historical impact on the hobby is very cool.

I am humbled knowing that something went from his collection into mine. Brings you closer to the history of card collecting.
