R309-2 Greenberg

[Iron Horse]

I think it is just a great image. Not completing a set. Never owned one of these so any help on what you consider the condition to be?

[Jewish-collector]

You would think it would be in some demand because of Jewish player collectors would want it, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

$1K for an ex condition Greenberg is quite steep......Fairly tough issue in high grade although I was fortunate enough to purchase the entire set (there is no Lester Bell) in the Legendary May 2011 Auction for $1075 with a near mint Greenberg

Very tough in high grade due to the size and thin paper. I got in mine in a trade+cash deal several years ago for around $900:

Yes my Greenberg is steep as Tim stated. Heck I think I bought it from him now that I think about it! I bought most of my set from Tim, thanks Tim for these!

I really do not want to sell it as it is part of my near complete set, I am missing just the Washington Team.

Sometimes I put stuff up from my personal collection very high because I really don't want to sell it but if it is the only one available at the time then there is a chance I will get giant money for a rare, tough, not offered very often item.

My Stan Musial 1955 full box with cards lid and glove is another example. I threw it up on ebay very high, one sold in legendary for $5600 I believe.

Hey I have sold some stuff I really didn't want to this way but I hit a homerun and can spend the money on some neat stuff I may need.

I love it when people quote me price guide prices on rare stuff, I wish they would buy the stuff from the author of the guide, oh that's right, they don't have the item to sell.



Take care
