I don't believe it is. Can't remember where I saw a photo of that one but I believe the burn marks were much more extensive on it. This one was in a bit better shape.

OK, thanks Jeff - the only reason I watch the show is for the off chance of catching something like that and of course I missed it. I did see once where they bought a very early (late 60s?) Miami Dolphins playbook. I don't know if the fact that you don't see those much, make them more or less collectable though.

I picked up the Walker Packer set.

I stopped bidding on the Grange Coral program at like $1200, I love that pose of him on the front, like he's going to burst through the page

I would have loved the Bears program, but the Walker Packer set took precedence, and I wasn't sure if someone was sandbagging it to bid late. I live on the west coast so it was easy to stay up and watch the auction, which ended around Weekend Update on SNL.

Don't rub it in, Joe. We East Coaster's truly suffer in these late night auctions, particularly those that end during the week.

Man, that Walkers Cleaners set was great. If I hadn't recently picked up a large lot of these, I would have been your sandbagger ;-)
