1925 Gehrig Rookie Exhibits Card

[Leon]

I would hate to either miss out on something like the '25 Gehrig going up or try to catch this falling rock. There have been some spiked prices lately. Maybe Ken needs to do more advertising? Or maybe there is something entirely different going on, who knows anymore? I got nothing.... btw, I love the '25 Gehrig card......

I would have more expected a Mantle RC reach that before a Gehrig RC P/C.
I don't recall a 1952 Mantle PSA 3 selling for 60K have we??
Will propel even higher prices?? Or is it another attempt from the buyers group?
Edit: I forgot we don't talk about the 'buyers group'

Or maybe the investor crowd is starting to leave the field?

Best to all,

So cool reading about the exhibits and Exhibits Supply Co. One of you guys has to write the book on this. Amazing history. Call it "The Company that Sold the Most Baseball Cards (and Every Other Kind of Card Imaginable)".

I've been gathering data for a while now for an exhibit book. The problem is drawing the line of where to cut it off. I want to cover all sports at the least. I am thinking that would be volume 1.

I hope you do Adam, your website was one of the first references on exhibits I used, I still enjoy browsing it. I also use your Boxing Card book all the time, it's the best resource book by far!

Adam - do you own any machines? Ive seen them around (and am sure you have seen plenty) and came close a few times to picking one up in decent condition. Is cool when the old cards are still in the panes. Even if it didn't work at all would be very nice piece to have.

I'm not much for 3-D memorabilia but I did buy this:



And turn it into this:



Which was a lot of fun.

Great item Adam! Question... What size coin does your machine take? It looks larger than a penny? Did you modernize it to take a quarter?

Count me in as a buyer, Adam. Love the Exhibits--best photo quality of the 20's and 30's cards!

Highest regards,

I changed nothing, just cleaned it up. The mechanism never worked so it is just a display piece.
