Leland's Auction

[ruth-gehrig]

Bowed out on what they were calling baseball bat trade sign.

I bid on two of the Schoendienst lots but was out bid before the night started and chose not to raise my bids. I went to bed on time.

I don't recall MEARS auctions staying up too late, but the others usually do.

What's even worse is when you bank on an auction going late into the night, then come back to check on it and place your bids only to find out it's already ended. Oops! Doesn't happen often, but I missed out on several photos in an auction recently because of that.

Another lesson for me to not take things for granted. I'd like to say it will teach me to not wait until the last minute to do things as well, but I'm an inveterate procrastinator. I'll just wait and learn that lesson another day.

I won a sweet 1910 game used catcher's glove from T206 player Pat Moran. I undoubtedly overpaid, but it will go nicely with my T206 memorabilia and autograph collection. I already have a Pat Moran bat so I'm pretty excited to add this as well. Scans to follow.

Brendan, it's hard to put a price on something like that - game-used equipment from a T206 player !?!? - almost impossible to find. It would have fit in perfect with my collection of game-used catchers mitts, but I can't be buying to keep at the moment. GREAT pick-up.
