I was the underbidder Barry and saw I got outbid at around 2:30 in the afternoon, and I guess it stuck. Congrats. If you want to part with the Church book, please let me know.

I was outbid on the only other lot I REALLY wanted at 2:36AM (I couldn't stay up ) was the 1939 Burdick books. My high bid of $4500 was topped by one bid

Oh well, win some, lose some.

K. Farrell- after I get the lot I will decide what I want to keep and what I want to sell. Will let you know.

Greg- I actually put my bid in around 9:00, then decided to walk away assuming it would go much higher. But that bid held up the whole night. I'm glad the T206 crowd pays no attention to the books.

And I'll let you know if I decide to part with the Church.

Jim, I was admiring that one just before the auction closed. That's a striking card. The color is phenomenal. One of my favorite cards in the whole auction.

Congratulations on your win!

One of my faves, congrats. Looks like our board members came away with quite a few items. Great looking antiquities.

Jim- Love the Croft's Cobb.

Thanks, Leon.

I agree that the Croft's Cobb is the bomb. Congrats, Jim.

Love seeing all the great cards of fellow board members.

I wouldn't be concerned unless Jim starts a new thread,

Croft's Candy cards, shouldn't they sell for much more?

feeling your pain as I was an underbidder on that lot as well although I dropped a couple bids earlier. The 1939 has been on my list a long time. I once passed at 300. or so (1995) before I was putting a "run" together and a few months ago I was offered a copy with a replaced cover for around 1000. but the replacement bothered me and I keep convincing myself I'll find a nice one at the money I want to pay or I'll do without sad as that may be to me. Needless to say I've already had to revise my buy price a few times based on market experience. Apparently the bar has been raised again after the 4000.+ showing last time out in REA and this hammer. My biggest problem in the Edwards lot was determining the value of the other half of the lot. That being said - coming up empty last few years even at 1000. - I've upped my buy price to 1500 - probably just more mental masturbation.

I spoke with another hobby publication collector last night during the auction concerning that lot. We figured about a 75% - 25% valuation on the 1939 Catalog and the 1930s Card Collectors Bulletins respectively. If that was the case then the Catalog was around 4200, with 2 additional Yearly Supplements in it. REA has gotten the top prices I have seen for these early guides. They are really scarce. We need to remember there were only 500 printed, 75 years ago. I still need a 1956 reprint of the 1953 edition if anyone has one laying around .
