Problems copying photo but got the 1921 E121-80 Frank Baker cards. The J Franklin Baker variety will be for sale and the Frank Baker will be crossed over to SGC.

[Joshwesley]

That CJ joe Jackson is ridiculous.. And a 1914 to boot

Is that a 6 figure card?

Did Shoeless Joe ever play in the majors without shoes?

[Joe_G.]

Wow Jeff, I never comment on 20th century cards, but that is flat-out impressive. Congrats!

[btcarfagno]

Yeah I pretty much passed out when I saw that Jackson.

What did I miss?

Nice card Jeff

If it was Certified High End, then I would be more impressed.

Finally got a PSA 7 (again). None higher, as they say.

Nice stuff guys, congrats on the pickups. Been waiting patiently (ok, impatiently) on this auction ever since I got the catalog. Ended up being a bitter auction night for me. I was the underbidder on an incredible 1924 Notre Dame team signed photo that included the Four Horsemen, and I was the underbidder on a 1920's autograph baseball signed by Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, John McGraw, Kennesaw Landis, Ring Lardner, Nick Altrock and another.

And because those two lots went later than many others in extended time, I was not able to shift my funds around to other items that I would have bid higher on compared to what they sold at.

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. (at least tonight LOL)

Mike's situation is a perfect illustration of why lot by lot closing sucks for consignors

[pcoz]

For those who know E98's, this color combo is almost impossible. I've been after this one for years...

Great card Pete. I have never seen a blue Cobb before. Looks nice for the grade!

Yes it is a perfect illustration of half of the debate.

[bobfreedman]

Yes, that is why I said "for consignors": as a bidder I love individual lot closings and I really love it when lots close individually and overtime bidders cannot troll the auction raising bids but are confined to bidding only on items they've bid on before the overtime starts. I've won a number of items over the years far below what I would have paid simply because the rules have left me as the only one standing when OT started.

I realize AHs have to decide what balance to strike, but I can say as a consignor I have learned to look at how the close is handled as among the factors I consider when I consign.

Been wanting one of the Black Swamp cards for a while.

Great pickup for an absolute steal compared to earlier sales! Where will the BSF E98s bottom out?

[jcc6252]

First Allen & Ginter - impulse bid

[Yoda]

I managed to snag one of the BSF beauties as well, the Bresnahan, at a great price. Is there some new stigma attached to these beautiful cards; they seem to selling at a significant discount? Other scores were OJ "Truthful" Jim, E92 Gibson, E120 Cobb, W501 Cobb, '14 CJ Marquard and SK Ruth. A great haul, but now I am card rich and cash poor. Life is hard when you are a dealer with the soul of a collector. John

There's no stigma, except there are north of a bajillion of them! The other day I saw a few in a toy arcade outside Walmart.

hahahahhaha...this is awesome!!!!!

I was able to win these 2, one for my Doc Oberlander collection and the other for Jewish player collection. I have been looking for a Pelty that fits my budget for awhile. I am not a T207 collector (I only have one other), so the Cycle back is kind of a bonus (as I understand the backs).
