But lightning did not strike twice.

Hard to imagine that being beat. And the card wasn't even centered. 30 times market value is pretty impressive.

You need TWO bidders to drive a price up. Remember that.

Two drunk rich bidders for a result like that.

Certainly an unusual result, whatever the explanation.

Yea I'm sure it's an interesting story. One I'd love to hear.

I just got through perusing the Goodwin auction results, interesting as always, and was surprised at the somewhat flat prices achieved for the Cracker Jack lots, in particular the '14 Frank Chance. I have always, like so many, loved CJ cards; the color, smell, feel and, of course, the wonderful player images. The Chance, in my opinion, is one of the iconic cards in the whole set most probably due to the fact he only appeared in the '14 set, being replaced in '15 by Hal Chase. This important fact was not even mentioned in Goodwin's description, which I felt was a shocking omission. I believe, but am not sure, he was the only HOF'er dropped for the '15 set. His solid PSA 5 card #54 only fetched $2963. I wonder if this is a price trend starting to emerge for these popular cards?

As the purchaser, I am rather hoping that it was a good deal that just slipped through the cracks because folks had spent all their money at Heritage. (:

He was the only HOFer dropped as the other 3 player were Callahan, Cashion and Lord.

I think the Chance went low, but I don't think 1915 prices are dropping. The 1914 CJ are all about set collectors and when 3-or 4 emerge at the same time, you get what we got in 2014 w/ prices calming down again recently. 1915s keep rising, look at the recent prices in auction on the Jacksons alone in the past few months. 1915s will always be the poor mans 1914s, but 1915s can attract many more collectors b/c you wont pay 4-figures for names like Cady, Pratt, Shotten, etc...

Maybe Bill has started putting a certified high end sticker on select lots.

BWI is that Bidding While Intoxicated?

I see far more disappointing results than the other way around.

We must be looking at different cards then. I see TONS of ecstatic consignors with only a few disappointments.
