How could they if only "10 or less" exist?��

Maybe I'm just being an ass or had too much to drink or BOTH. This has been one of the most annoying threads I've been following. I am a Red Sox collector and I'm somewhat knowledgeable about Harry Agganis.

You have made several statements that have been pulled from your ass:

1. "This has been one of the rarest yearbooks of all!!"
Where do you get this info?

2. "No one knows anything about it..."
No one?

3. "This one looks better than both of those!"
Hard to tell with your scans.

4. "It features a player that died near the end of the year."
June 27?

5. "There just isn't many of the out there. I'm guessing 10 or less."
Based on what? Google search?

6. "...extremely rare...99% of Red Sox collector don't have this program!"
Because 99% of us don't want/value it.

7. "For a program that is 61 years old and with the advent of EBay, SURELY there should be some past sales on this program."
Just not something people are interested in buying or selling.

Maybe it's just me, but I hate seeing the same crap bumped for weeks on end. Maybe put a price that someone might be interested in or just let it go to EBay. Sorry, nothing against you Bobby, just venting.

As far as rare...find one in another auction house. I will pay you $500. Show me...please...I beg you. There HAVE been sales in the past 15 years....two of them. I count two of them.....I appreciate your smart ass comments. If you can't appreciate the rarity of the item, how about just shut your pie hole??? Thanks!
PS - if a Red Sox collector wants ALL of the yearbooks, they HAVE to attempt to get this one. True, you can just pretend like it doesn't exist, the same way T206 collectors pretend the Wagner, Plank, and Doyle don't exist. However, if you want to have a complete collection........

[bobbyw8469]

here is one of the other two. Mine is better than this one. This one sold for $700 (the crappy scan above you on the left). Contrary to what you think, you CAN blow up my scans. Nice and big! The only other two I have ever been sold have both been on Worthpoint. I am sorry, I have not seen past sales anywhere else. Please don't get upset with me because my item is rare.

they never specifically mentioned this program. They overlooked it as well. Find me one that specifically has this program by itself....NOT hidden in some lot where the seller had no clue what they had!

Looks like you lose out.....that link only shows the 1951 Yearbook and the 1956 yearbook. It DOES NOT show the 1955 yearbook.

PS . the link you listed is for the normal 1955 yearbook...not the RARE one!! This is the normal one...



If you want, give me your address...I'll send you some type of booby prize for trying!

[Bestdj777]

Good luck with the sale!

[Shoeless Moe]

I look forward to my booby prize.......I do love boobies!

I wish this thread would RIP lol

[bobbyw8469]

You interested in purchasing the program?

[Peter_Spaeth]

I don't see where Bob deserves any grief here.

The Agganis story makes for very interesting reading. Particularly in my mind the question whether he received substandard medical care resulting in his premature and tragic death.

Agreed. Thanks Peter! It's very similar to the situation our veterans are in today in their dealings with our VA hospital. It's an EXTREMELY rare program! Almost to the point where it is considered SCARCE!

Say what????? I agree he doesn't deserve the grief but, his posts...man, they leave you scratching your head!

Good luck with the sale. You might go try it on ebay and get some real exposure to see if your price point is correct.
