T214 Victory & T215 Red Cross Tobacco Cards

[buymycards]

Hi Steve, congratulations on your pick ups. These are pretty scarce and they are pretty cool, so I really don't feel that you overpaid.

I might have to start drinking a couple of beers while I am bidding. Maybe that is why I don't win anything! Or it could be that I am too cheap.

Sean, That Willets is a fantastic 1.

I don't have it in hand, but as I recall it has a small pinhole. But it does present well.

While we're talking T215s, I'm going to ask again: has anyone seen a Merkle?

If so, could you please post a scan or link or anything. I know one was sold about eight years ago in a large lot by Legendary, but there was no picture.

Anyone?

Thanks, Rick. I appreciate the kind words, but I know I overpaid when I saw the price and thought, "wow, it'll be embarrassing if anybody notices that."

Haha, just my luck, somebody did.

Best,
Steve

Steve,

I dropped out of the first one at $80 (I was set to go $150, but then it started popping and I just moved to the second), and the second at $231 ( I was thinking, criminy, what's going on with this? Oh just stop!). Glad I wasn't the guy that bid you all the way up, but I sure did want one of those. For what it is worth, I figured they could hit $400, I just didn't have the funds to go as high as you. I have seen worse go for more. Enjoy them!
