1948 Leaf Satchel Paige - blank back - on eBay....

brianp-beme · #1 03-30-2018, 01:44 AM

The seller has 3 other blank back Leaf cards. Has our resident Leaf expert (I believe that would be Ted) seen blank back versions before?

Just magoogled it and saw that there are other blank backs floating out there. Definitely Paige would be the one to own (whether or not $30,000 is pie in the sky pricing, well, it beats me).

I think he accidentally put 6 extra zero's behind what it is truly worth.

Unless you are counting the .00 cents I have no clue what you mean. In either case this is not a reprint so $3 is not the value either.

This seller has sold some amazing cards, but be careful of the cards due to rubber band if you have any feeling they will grade high. **One of his early auctions mentioned all cards were rubber-banded together in groups for 40+ years.

Im not a huge fan of grading but if I was spending $30,000 you're damn right I want it graded.

+1, especially considering (at least) the bottom edge looks trimmed to me.

According to seller: "It's super rare to have a 1958 Leaf Satchel Paige"

He is right because I never saw a 1958 Leaf. Has anyone else?

I messaged this guy asking if he’d get it graded when he initially had a no reserve auction for it and he didn’t seem like he wanted to. It’s gotta be a fake... the thing is, though, he had some other pretty high dollar cards that sold at prices as if people thought they were genuine, so you never know

My holy grail is the 48 leaf satch... but no way I would touch that one (even if I could afford it)

Don't go higher than $15,000.- it has no back

That's a really cool card. Surprised the comments are so negative. I'd love to own it.
