I looked it over, killer offering. Good Luck!

600 or so T213-2 Coupon cards is a very impressive amount of an issue that is not seen on a regular basis.

+1 I have never seen so many coupons in one auction. Good luck to Steve and team and all of the consignors

Were those T213-2's from the Fritsch collection? He's the only collector I've known that would have dozens of the same rare card. Like 12 T213-2 Dubuc's or whatever.

I grabbed the Baker NY. Down to 3.

Anyone else grab a few?

The T213 Quinn - Vernon went for almost 4K - I had no idea it was that much of a rarity.

I’m bummed I didn’t see this thread until yesterday. I missed out on the T213-2 Chattanooga Elberfeld that I’ve been hunting for the last 3 years. Looks like it was an awesome auction!

I ended up with one T207 and 3 T205 - all low grade commons.

I'm not really pursuing tobacco cards other than those of Cleveland players. But earlier in the week I looked at the auction and saw the large majority of the T206 and T205 lots at or just above the minimum of $10.

I placed a large quantity of bids designed to get me to about $20 a card - way below what they should go for - as that will about equate the grading fee.

As expected the bidding picked up as we approached the end of the auction and I really didn't get any super bargain cards - I had about a 2% success rate on bids.

A really fun auction to bid on and follow.

Quinn Vernon is hard to find. When I had 15 to go, it was still on my want list.

I wanted to upgrade my Thomas Phila. Here is my copy. Although it has a damaged caption, you can see the name "Thomas" is further to the right than the "Philadelphia" cards. I paid like $20 bucks on eBay. It was noted as "Philadelphia" by mistake. It was a fist-pump day for me, like Kirk Gibson or something. ha-ha.

Do I need references to register on the site?

Thanks for the kind words on the auction guys. Yes, I ask for two hobby references when registering for the auction, with other auction houses being the best reference, but also major dealers.

Sent over my registration. Very interesting stuff. Love all the t213’s

I was in the running for the red Cobb that was torn off above his head, but it went a bit higher than I was willing to go in extended bidding. Great auction!
