I'm glad you got it too, Ian! That was a great collection.

Adam, I'm reasonably certain that Ernest and William Born were brothers. The collection was consigned to LOTG from Ernest's daughter, who inherited the collection of about 1,000 cards, mostly from the tobacco era. Until you got it, the card had, as far as anyone knows, never been outside the family.

I've been fortunate enough to handle three original owner collections in the past year with LOTG, and each one has been an absolutely fantastic, fascinating experience.

I know this is not prewar but we've had a few postwar on this thread so I thought I would chip in. This 62 Mantle "The Switch Hitter Connects" card came to me a few years back and the original owner (who I do not know) sent me this hand written note with the card.

The card was graded but I cracked it out and it sits in my mostly raw natural set with the note tucked in behind the card in the plastic sheet. I thought it was neat of the original owner to include the note.

Here's the Cobb pictured earlier raw from the original owner. Happy to be the 2nd owner and hope to pass it on to my 3 month old son
