i "found" this card in a bb card shop in allentown PA, about 15 years ago, bought it raw for $125 (most expensive card i had bought up until that point)...i sold it 2 years ago & have seen it surface a few times over the last year or 2...

i should just buy it back...i'll think about it (maybe i could interest you in a trade)?
i'll email later today.

Best-
MS

MS,

Sure, shoot me an email. Sell, trade I'm fine either way.

I love this card. It's actually one of my favorites, but I'd also like to move beyond just T-206s and do some type collecting.

Regards,
Eric

I once owned that card as well. I was the one who had it put in a PSA holder. It's a great card.

i had it first graded about 10 years ago...it actually was just slabbed a "1"...no (mk)...then i cracked it out, because i didn't want any "1's" in my collection, at the time, i wanted it just raw...then sent it in again, got a 1(mk), and i think i cracked it again, i'm nuts sometimes...haha.

then i sold it in a large raw lot (if i remember correcly), then i guess you got it slabbed again...

it does have some history behind it...

And I purchased it from Adam. It was a birthday present to myself.

I think it's kind of cool that we can track some of the recent history of this card. Makes it very interesting.

I agree, the recent history of this card is cool to know. I did some digging through my emails and have this to add to the history -- I bought that card, raw, from a person in Squaw Valley, California who has an eBay user name of "albercr."

So the card was (1) in California, then it went to me (2) in Washington, DC, then I sent it back (3) to California (to PSA), then it came back to me (4) in Washington, DC, then it was sent (5) to New Jersey (if I remember correctly, that's where you live Eric). Wish I had frequent flyer miles for that card.

Yep, you got it right Adam.

Well it looks to really like the East Coast then, if it keeps coming back here.

That being said, lets find it a new home.....East Coast/West Coast/Midwest....it doesn't matter.

Would also be willing to trade for Graded E type cards.

If you want it, make me a reasonable offer. My list price was $425.

Thanks.

The history of the card is pretty cool, seems to have a hard time finding a permanent home.

I get a kick out of PSA putting a qualifier on 1s and 2s, why bother at that grade? So are they technically zeros. Maybe 2 negatives makes a positive
