Great stories, Carlton.
Now that the dust has settled, I'm curious as to which hurts more.... the Crate or the Flask? I know the Crate is far more recent. Sometimes losing out is devastating at the time, but the sting eventually wears off. Other times, the hurt grows deeper as time progresses. Either way... Don't you just love it when one single being on the Planet comes between you and your treasure? I'd rather lose by a mile than be the high under-bidder. You just can't count on anything until the clock says :00 It's far better to focus on what you've won, and all those times you've been the disappointer (not the disappointee) |

![]() http://www.sportsantiques.com/tiffanyfbflask1.htm Mark, Ah...I reel in a fair amount of stuff so not really bothered by either now...really it's just a matter of understanding you can't get it all...that is after like ya say....the dust settles...I think that box had me because it was just so unique and ancient....but at this point....darn with that $777.00 in my pocket I'm almost glad I didn't get it...God willing I get my share...I did get a football flask later after the boxing flask, link above to that one. ![]() ![]() And speaking of getting knocked out of the action...I lost this stein above two days ago on eBay...I wanted it because it has the same basic illustration as the FB flask....and I go into a lot of detail about the origin of the scene in the story...would have been nice to display them together...win some lose some
