Who did you deal with at Heritage that told you that these came from a banner not the album? Can you please share his or her name?
Also what kind of "pleasing estimated value" did they tell you? |
Another interesting note. I asked the seller what he knew about the King Kelly cut-out card he was selling and how he came to own it. This was his response.
"I sell some cards through one of the last existing card shops in my area and there is a elderly gentleman that brings some vintage in from time to time. We became friendly and he showed me some of his private collection with time I was able to purchase my first card a Ruth strip in amazing condition but it came with a catch he would only sell me that card if I bought the Cobb from the same series in the same condition. From then on he let me pay with payments and I have gotten some amazing pieces like a small black and white hand tinted Ruth/ Gehrig tobacco that only one other has ever been seen at auction.
Anyways these two he had (Anson/King) and I fell I love with them it took me 5 months to pay him for these so yes I am very surprised to hear that a similar card went for so little."
Meanwhile, here's the link to the completed ebay item for the card that he won last month.
