How Many of You Want One Baltimore News Card?

[Schlesinj]

So we have a lot with 13 cards. Who wants one of the cards? Currently around $8.5k per card.

Wouldn't mind having one for my type set, but not at that price.

I voted no......i don't have that much disposable cash. And if I had one, I would sell it. I am getting too old to keep cardboard my family would not know what to do with if I passed on.

[Shankweather]

No Cubs in that set as far as I know.

not at those prices

are you presuming you're going to win lot #3 in REA?

I was mentally preparing to allocate 10K for one card if the cards were being sold individually. Since they ended up as a lot, some of that money went elsewhere in LOTG and may be going elsewhere in REA (or nowhere if what I am bidding on gets too high).

If I do win some cards in REA, that will pretty much have shot my budget for awhile. But I voted for 10K because I like type cards and that seems like a "reasonable" price for one.

But I have a feeling the lot will go for more than 10K per card (just a guess).

Okay I will take the Ruth for 10k 😆

Should've been separate lots (individual cards).

No, have not bid. I was curious if people were interested could a group purchase them since from what I read some people were interested in 1. This seems like a very rare shot to acquire one if this was a must have for this type of collector.

Initially I would jump at it and say yes as I love rare vintage cards and in the past I might have but I am trying to stay focused on my collection priorities and not go after the “shiny bling” and then miss that money on something I truly wanted and miss out on it(done that before)
