I guess it's really up to whether or not the main bidders have an issue with the presence of the stain on the REA card.

I can only say this - it ain't gonna be me with the high bid for either.

Interesting and great points. I’m interested in the results of the poll. I think many Cracker Jack collectors appreciate the stains feeling the card then wasn’t a redemption issue but showing the nostalgia of a pack pulled example. I’ll cast my vote in a few days. Great topic.

For me, i like the REA. Like the staining, but may be too much of it on the corner.
But, the MH one does have the 2 corner creases and some white streak at the bottom, not sure what it is.
I used to own one, a Auth one due to a cut at the top border and was re-glued. It presented very nice with no stains. Bought it from PWCC raw and had it slabbed myself.
I have seen it sell later, and had thought about re-buying it at the time.
But i dont regret it..as i love my project i am working on (in my sig.)

I am also looking to see where the results end as well.

NOTE: i didnt look at the reverse (BACKS) until now:

REA:


MILEHIGH:

I say neither, since Shoeless Joe is dead, and being dead, he ain't getting any anymore.

And I pose this to Mr. Jackson himself - If I am incorrect about you being dead and not getting any anymore, say it ain't so, Joe!

And it's a tossup between the two for me, as each has something better than the other...I say they get the exact same amount.

Obviously they are both similar and they both have same Grade and by same grading company(so the Argument of PSA vs SGC is out).

Now it is more a preference of the eye appeal to the bidder.

I would be proud to have either in my collection. But I would choose Mile High

My exact same amount prediction was off, but at this level a couple thousand dollars difference is hardly noticeable.

Both nice cards going for a similar price. The prices on those cards amazingly keeps going up

The 2 winners have nice cards to add to their collections

That's like picking 0 or 00 in roulette. Close enough. I'd call it a 0 or 00 bet and win on your guess.

It was really close.
