Ryan, imagine the ROI on the PSA 10 '52 Mantle? Or the PSA 8 '14 CJ Cobb? When you visit me, we'll have a drink and drool over these old catalog together.
Was great to spend time with Rob, and reminisce. Last edited by MVSNYC; 10-06-2019 at 06:39 AM.

Several of those look familiar and I love looking through the old catalogs. I have a printout of all the closing prices for that 1997 black REA catalog. It's a lot of fun looking at what those cards/items sold for back then.

Andy, it's amazing looking at the offerings, and the prices from 15-20 years ago.
Here's a few more "random" pieces, buried within the pages of a 2000 REA catalog. Again...any one of these items, would be front & center in any major auction today. Last edited by MVSNYC; 10-06-2019 at 08:13 PM.

Just curious, what's been your favorite catalog that you received from Rob?
Maybe you could start a new thread and find out which past auction catalogs are the best. For example, the Halper Auction catalogs were incredible.

Oh how I remember that Boston Garter of WaJo, which was way beyond my budget back then. But, if only I had refinanced the house ...

Val, we all have the one that got away. If I recall correctly I was underbidder on an E107 Plank in an 8 holder (before trimming was quite as prevalent) around 18-20? yrs. ago. I chose to go for something else in the auction.
