Lelands

Anyone notice the 19th Century material in Leland's current auction? Jaw dropping stuff.

That’s for certain, Paul. Got my catalogue in the mail yesterday. Never seen this much pre-OJ premium material in one auction that I can ever recall, not even in REA.

Some amazing 1800's items

Very tempted detour from My Collection Focus and go after one.

They always have great truly vintage items

Scarce items, albeit in bad shape and, at least on the team CdVs, not any stars. My guess is that the results disappoint.

So, at least we know what you're bidding on

I agree, but it should be a field day for type collectors.

Not any stars? The Boston 1871 CDV alone has the Wright Brothers, Spalding, Barnes and McVey...

a scarce pose that I'm guessing not even experienced collectors like Old Judge and Joe Gonzowski have ever seen for sale before. Not that it makes any difference in desirability. I have a nice example in good condition that I thought probably unique until Lelands.

Yeah, guess i will wait for a bunch more to show up in the coming PWCC auctions, no reason to chase these.

Scarce items in bad shape? That describes my collection to a T. Why buy a crispy clean Ruth card when you can get ten lower grade Ruth cards for the same price? That way, I end up with more Ruth cards!
